Thanks for all of the positive comments!

I had originally intended to write something that sounded completely different from this, but somehow I ended up with this tune.

Everyone remember to get those last minute votes in!
As They Stand on the World's Stage (contest submission) by sirjon1989 3 years ago
Thanks for the in-depth comment! They are always a treat. Obviously, like you mentioned, there is a strong sense of tension that I put into it. I feel what you described does speak for what I had in my head during writing this piece. I failed to mention that in the description though. Good call! Glad to hear to relate to my composition and that it's one of your favorites! Thanks for listening!

Wow! Thanks for all of the comments! I've been away for the past couple of days getting moved into my new apartment for school! Thanks for all of the support!

I thank you for your vote! Yes, I'm playing all of the instruments here, and you are correct, I am a woodwind doubler (who just happens to play brass in his spare time...but not too much because it really messes with my embouchure). Doubling is a necessary skill for my studies in college. Luckly, I took up most of these instruments early on, so I've been playing many of them for several years.

(The congas are being played with sticks, not hands, if that matters)
As They Stand on the World's Stage (contest submission) by sirjon1989 3 years ago
Thanks for the comments.

The orchestration is as follows:
1 Grand Piano
1 Oboe
3 Trumpets
1 Bass Trombone
2 Tenor Trombones
Strings equalling a medium sized orchestra (can't give ya exacts for it, sorry)
4 Toms of various sizes
2 bass drums
2 Congas
1 baritone (voice)

I believe that's it

Thanks all for the kind comments
Dolphin Dance by sirjon1989 3 years ago
Many thanks!

The reason the mix is off is because this was just an impromptu jam session, so just for documentation purposes we had one mic recording

All The Things You Are by sirjon1989 4 years ago
Thank you, that is very flattering.

Whemever I did the final bounce, I put in the wrong thing for one of the parameters, so part of the ending was not included. I've just been too busy/lazy to redo it.

Thanks Jeff! I love your phrases, they're so fluid! (Something I greatly need to work on) I'm trying to find more tunes to do with you, if you have any that you'd like to play, just let me know! It's always fun!

And thank you for your comment MacJackIt, it is much appreciated!
Sunflowerseeds, Watermelon Pits and Your Smile by sirjon1989 4 years ago
Thank you very much! It's not too often that someone takes the time to write such a thorough and lengthy comment like yours! I'm always glad to hear that a listener can hear and connect with the feeling(s) that I try to convey! It makes my day!
I tried to lay back the vibes some, but they are definitely laying back too much at some points. I didn't want to do more that one take on this tune to keep it as spontaneous as possible.
Anyway, thank you very much for the comment!
Thanks for listening,
