Song of India cmpsed by N. Rimsky Korsakow by andreahoffman2 1 day ago
Perfectly fine to post this, since it's pre-1920, and hence copyright. Lovely job!
Lina's Song1 by atmirage 1 day ago
I've heard this before.. is this actually your music? Is this all loops? Seems decidedly familiar.
Live from Vito's Knuckle Room by michaeljayklein 1 day ago
"Soirve"... he he he. Great vox. Is the backing music canned?
The Angel Gabriel by elfdaughter 1 day ago
Nice work, and your method takes a long time. I do the same thing. Well worth the effort! A little more reverb might add to the overall ambience. Nicely done.
Coming Up On 7 by pfpage 1 day ago
Yes, I like this too! Sort of Gershwin-esque. I like the quirky rhythms and the use of dissonance as a colouristic effect. Virtuosic playing with lots of impact! This would also be interesting orchestrated.
Mack the Knife by michaeljayklein 2 days ago
Awesome vox!
Windmill on Steinway B by georgeptingley 2 days ago
Sounds nice! A little more harmonically advanced than a lot of rags, yet idiomatic!
March from 'The Nutcracker' by soulima 2 days ago
Sorry, the Contrabassoon will have to do!
The Outer Reach ( Part V ) An Alien Interlude by Filmscorz 2 days ago
An enjoyable listen. I like the flute fluttertonguing!
EXCALIBUR by SebastienGabriel 2 days ago
Nice work! Enjoyed the guitar work. Trying to let those cymbals resound, instead of cutting the reverberation off may make them sound more realistic.
Return by Bowman 2 days ago
Lovely work! I like the wordless choir.
FB1 (Funky Blues One-for Collab) by Filmscorz 4 days ago

DEMO King Atrophy by kungence 7 days ago
Sheesh... no one has reviewed this? Really lovely, and what a nice vox. Good job, and memorable!
Hyperspace (Classical version) by Digipoll 7 days ago
Very pretty work indeed!
Free Spirits by alan 7 days ago
Very pretty--and a nice use of texure. Reason is a not a favorite software of mine; some of the timbres are not really identifiable as orchestral instruments. However, I really like the music--it undulates and moves so nicely! Bravo.
Schindler's List (Solo Violin) by ckrohm 7 days ago
Yes, much improved. The solo violin sounds much more realistic. It's hard to get an authentic string sample. The accompaniment is still the same rendering? Time to move to some of the software geared for classical rendering perhaps? Lovely work indeed!

B.T.W., I heard your original version in the summer, and fiddled with a smaller version of my own. It's such lovely music. This is in Notion. Cheers!

Pretty work!
Lo How A Rose E'er Blooming by mlpbadarak 8 days ago
Tasty stuff, Mary. Beautifully sung and written. A noble piece indeed.
The Wishing Well by georgeptingley 8 days ago
Hmmm, very pretty. Musical playing--I like how you shape the phrases. The rendering is nice too--the cellos enter smoothly, and the instruments are bit above the piano. There is still an unusual sound at the end. I think perhaps it's the finger cymbals? Hard to tell. Most enjoyable.

Very enjoyable listening!
Adagio for Strings and Piano by Manuconde 11 days ago
Lovely strings..reminds of Beethoven, until the chromaticisms kick in, then it reminds of Barber. Very mature and deft music!

Lovely, growing music.
Alala Rosalia (Suite) by Manuconde 13 days ago
Lovely rendering, and the musical ideas themselves are quite mature. The orchestration is top notch as well. Well done, indeed.
Pardo-Bazán by Manuconde 13 days ago
Excellent work! I like the ostinato and orchestration. Great Oboe solo. I'd like to hear a longer version of this! Welcome to iComp!
In the Heat of Afternoon by Digipoll 13 days ago
Very well done! Enjoyable to listen as well.
This wont take Long! by fatchance 14 days ago
What's to critique? This is great! Most enjoyable, Geo!
My Cherie Amour by hiphopmoses 16 days ago
Soulful..and you gotta love those chords! Great vox. The only thing that mars it is a bit of clipping. Great stuff!
Parallels Of Life by guitar55 16 days ago
Great opening chord, with the major-minor mix. Like the vocals. Great texture and undulating movement in this piece. I also like the 'jazz' part and the segue to it is masterful! Most enjoyable stuff, Michael!
Smoke On The Blotter by ShadowofNine 16 days ago
Very enjoyable, and very musical!

Romantic work!

GLASSWORKS: Opening by georgeptingley 16 days ago
Ahh...lovely work, George. Gotta love this piece.
Thoughts of You by tunit557 18 days ago
I wouldn't call this plain, as least from a harmonic perspective. It's quite advanced actually. Pretty too!
The Alligator Run by mfwmiles 20 days ago
Very nice work! I like 7/4 oddness. Everything is working well here. I am in agreement with Jack Fancy--it's the quality of the sound that could be improved--not the content itself.
Around the Fireplace by telo12 20 days ago
Lovely and tragic music! My, you are a prolific composer, Telo!
General Midi Suite - March by mlpbadarak 21 days ago
An intense piece. Again, the writing for trumpet is highly effective. Although I like the midi sounds, I can't help but wonder how this would sound fully orchestrated. B.T.W., the trumpet playing is excellent! Another great piece, Mary!
General Midi Suite - Taps by mlpbadarak 21 days ago
I'm reminded of the sound world of late Stravinsky in places--those chords! The angularity in the trumpet line makes for quite a beautiful melody. Austere music that has impact!
Song For Laura ( final) by Rusticalia 22 days ago
Lovely work! I want the cello louder,perhaps an octave louder in places. The guitar picking stumbles upon itself at times. Agreeing too with the comment about vocal reverb. Lovely work however!
Orchestral 1 by Worldbridger 22 days ago
I agree--loops are just fine. I like the chords you use here--you are using minor/major chords together--a neat harmonic effect. A decay in the strings just prior to the woodwind entries might make it less jarring at that point. Nifty experimentation!
It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over by padowan_learner 23 days ago
Ok, this is burlesque. Well, synth burlesque! As always, your musical ideas are keen. This piece moves! A busy mix, but lots to listen to here. You get some nice effects as well with Harmony Assistant! Bravo!
Nanako in Wind by Leesa 23 days ago
Sounds improvised. Delightful!
The Shepard by Digipoll 23 days ago
Nice use of exotic scales. Very effective!
Ave Maria by Zzyzxx 23 days ago
Lovely!
Nature's Soundtrack by kristiankuh 23 days ago
This is very cool! I like the melody in the vox, and the background is effective. Quirky, but it all works. Nice work!
All we need is love by Narananda 23 days ago
Lovely work, Harald! Beautiful sounds.
TEMPTATION (Fallen Angel Suite PART III) by SoulSurvivor 23 days ago
Excellent work, indeed! Bravo.
Among The Trees by kassia 24 days ago
Lovely work indeed! Besides the percussion, I like how you go to a minor chord in places, where my ear was expecting its major chord counterpart. Well done!
Candlelight by ShadowofNine 25 days ago
Excellent work as usual, Dave...a nice, almost Motown feel.
gold at my feet by Mystified 25 days ago
Lovely work, pedal or no pedal!
Away from home by Narananda 25 days ago
Nice work, Harold. Atmospheric!
Soft She Lies by k6 27 days ago
Lovely Jere! The backing is certainly lovely. The vox..with the the vocoder effect...hmmm, not so sure. Music for musicians.

B.T.W., I expect that lawnmover to be returned with a full tank of gas, neighbour! *wink*

Workaholic by dirigent 28 days ago
Enjoyable and creative! I like the dissonant background about half way through.
The Moon And I by JodyG 29 days ago
Lovely work! A couple of clunkers near the end, but an effective improv just the same!
Blue: Pursuit Across the Desert by DavidBowles 29 days ago
Nice intervals and use of exotic scales....
The Dream Resumes by signorina_oscurata 1 month ago
Very enjoyable...clipping and tapping provides rhythm. If I could offer any suggestions..tuning in the vox(which is lovely!) could receive some attention at times. Lovely stuff!
In Pace (Remastered Version) by dirigent 1 month ago
This seems re-composed, but I like this version better. I love how you encourage the music of older masters, yet couch them in a modern musical language. Heretic, yet vanguard!
cabrini-green by knight 1 month ago
A very clear progression of musical idea here. Like Stockhausen's,'Gruppen', I hear the tones moving together in musical time, coinciding then moving apart again. Temporal music, but also quite aurally beautiful music as well. I like the introduction of the electronic tones. Organic, spatial,industrial yet minimal.
=( Fate )= by NickPerrin 1 month ago
Very cool and creative intro! I liked the ending as well. Different!

Sally's Song on Theremin by rex 1 month ago
Wonderful! You are a good thereminist!

Some info from Wikipedia on the instrument, Ravens:

The theremin is one of the earliest electronic musical instruments, and the first musical instrument played without being touched (originally pronounced [ˈteremin] but often anglicized as IPA: /ˈθɛrəmɪn/[1], theramin,[2] or thereminvox, it is also known as an aetherphone.) It was invented by Russian inventor Léon Theremin (Russian: Лев Сергеевич in 1919[3]. The controlling section usually consists of two metal antennas which sense the position of the player's hands and control radio frequency oscillator(s) for frequency with one hand, and volume with the other. The electric signals from the theremin are amplified and sent to a loudspeaker. The theremin is an electrophone, a subset of the quintephone family.
Rialto Ripples Rag by VieuxCarre 1 month ago
Feenix, you've been inculcated by all the rags that George P. Tingley posts. Me too--great work!
Olan Ja-di by lunatrick 1 month ago
He he, this is really cool. Quirky and individualistic. I like the little atonal woodwind duet best. Interesting structure and catchy in a Dr. Phibes kind of way!
Pizzicato all the way by telo12 1 month ago
Enjoyable pizzis!

Within a Druid's Yawn by lunatrick 1 month ago

Atonis by Narananda 1 month ago
I enjoyed this. It's modern, unpredictable and well composed. Lots to take in, and I liked the quarter tones. Excellent work, Harald!
Nikabrik's Ill Counsel by elfdaughter 1 month ago
So... is everything looped? Wondering how one loops orchestral parts. Creative use of loops..it's rather like musical paint-by-numbers?
The Majestic Suite by MacJackIt 1 month ago
Lovely work!
Urban Pathos by dcoscina 1 month ago
Nice use of dissonance to create tension. Excellent rendering and the orchestration is effective! I like orchestral hemmorages near the end.
