Well i'm not on this forum very much but i've decided to make a thread with my compositions.

Please do comment, I do want improve.

Here is my very first "orchestral piece"
:heh:

The melody wasn't really grabbing my attention anywhere (except for somewhere around 1:45, but I think it got off track again x_x ). Also, the ending sounded... unfinished. But for a first orchestrated piece, I'd say you're doing pretty good.

BTW, nice cymbal crash somewhere in there. ;)

its a little.......... inconsistent... but you are well on your way.

some strange chords going on in some places... they feel like they dont belong there...

keep it up!

OK, thx for the feedback, but there is one major problem i've had on my creations(eve thought this is only my third one), I seem to find it hard to uhm make a "bridge" from theme to theme, you see i play a lot of improvisations. I analyas the pieces play them 'til i know them by heart and them make my one, uhm, how do you call it, in swedish it is "tolkning", of the song.

So as you guys probably heard, the "övergångar" aren't very good.
And i'd like to improve that, any tips on how?

Thanks for the comments:)

(Btw this song is the same (same shit diffrent name) :P
Nah but i tried to change the volume balance in the song, but the chords reman the same.)

it sounds a little cut up... and I like the first one better.
but dont get bummed out "fortsätt att slita och till slut sitter det!" one could say....

You really need to sequence your strings better (sounds like Garritan or Opus 1 to me, wondering how you got that :shifty:...) - since they have such slow attack times, you really need to either extend their lengths, or use different articulations. The samples you have sound pretty decent, but you are trying to use them like general MIDI synths, which is not a good idea at all.

So you mean to, improve the sound, if you could say that, i should pay more attention to the instruments attack times, so for example i could have the strings as a slow second (stämma, what is that in english :S)

You see, I've never had any education in how you compose, well only during my piano lessons,, where we analys the pieces bla bla bla.
So I couldnt really figure out wat instrument is a good one to "lead" the song forward, or carry the melodi.
