Well I'm finally back behind the piano again after an extend composing hiatus. I am currently worried about a few things in some of my new work however. so, it is for that reason that I leave it''s judgment to you, my musical superiors. Creative Criticism both positive and negative appreciated. I have one more choral piece that is on my other computer though. I will upload it this weekend.

Note about Movement one of Sonata 2. One of my friends said it sounded like something already written, if I have unintentionally plagiarized something please let me know.

Hey, welcome back!

Sonata 2 in G-Major
It probably sounds familar because of the chord progression, but as far as I can tell it's an original work. It sounds good. The only thing I would say is to watch using closed chords in the lower register of the piano because they sound dull down there.


Adagio in F-Major
I didn't like this one. There was nothing that made it really interesting and again, watch the closed chords in the lower register.

Keep them coming our way! ^_^

There are a lot of places I enjoyed hearing in the first piece, but I felt that there were way too many repeats in the beginning. Awesome piece, nonetheless. :]

Well, that was an even longer break than I'd hoped for xD. I recently finished a piece for our high school choir and would love to hear some feedback on it before the perfromance. Its set to some parts of the dies irae

I have very limited knowledge of choral music (so feel free to disregard my advice), but you have a number of places where the basses are higher than the tenors. Would the tenors be more comfortable if most of their part was transposed an octave higher? That would eliminate the "chunky" feeling with the basses and the tenors in tenths rather than thirds. Measure 14: I don't know what you're trying to do, but it looks quite hard. There were shining moments in this piece though, like measure 15, and the bass part from measures 4 to 5. Beautiful :)

@ajamesu: x_x :heh: Thanks for that, I kinda forgot I was writing with the tenor cleft and that middle c= low c. Thank you for the feedback, I really appreciate it. Here is the version with the tenors up an octave.

@Future Listeners: Feel free to listen to both versions and pick at both.

Coating choir pieces like this with MIDI sounds is like having a bunch of lumberjacks prepare the Nobel dinner. ^^ I'm actually liking it so far... although after a while it did become quite dull. I would have wished for something more attention grabbing in the middle there, considering the nature of this composition.

It would be nice to know the lyrics each part of the chorus is singing if we are not talking about humming :). Because in some moments bass, tenor and alto lines seem to be very static creating chords over the soprano line which gives a sense of tiredness.
