Description
This piece is inspired by Joe Hisaishi's work. It isn't that ambient, but to me it captures the feeling of finding something beautiful that was lost to time. I recommend wearing headphones for the best listening experience.
Also I didn't use a DAW so I don't have any screenshots of that.

It was wonderful to hear a fully orchestrated piece as a submission for this jam. This piece seems to pay homage to Hisaishi's work in a way that feels inspired more-so than copied, so props to you for that!
While following your score, I noticed a great usage of dynamics in each of the instruments that really adds depth and expressiveness for each of the instruments that I don't always see from people that submit their work straight from music notation software. This is great to see!
The main critique that I have is that, on a couple occasions, the piano seems to play a significant amount of notes in a way that would be very difficult for a live pianist to perform (mostly occurring at the end of the 6/4 section). Not that that's necessarily your goal, but in my opinion the idea of "less is more" in those measures could help add some clarity to this section. Especially considering that you appear to be doubling the piano's left hand with one of the bass stringed parts - having it doubled with another of that instrument instead of with the piano could help free up both hands of the pianist instead of relying on just one to play that part in higher register. Hopefully that makes sense.
Thanks a ton for sharing, and keep up the good work :)
Nice works, its a good composition, since you didn't use a DAW thats probably why some sounds in the mix are not quite well placed in the mix and could've been more forward especially the piano, if you can find a way to extract the audio part of each instruments and mix it somewhere else I think it will enhance the quality by alot.
Unfortunately - I'm not a big fan of conventional orchestral music and for that reason I don't know how to rate it at all....
...but from my philistine point of view (and also from the point of view of my ears) - it was very fabulous! Good melody, a little epic in the middle and atmospheric piano!
Cool job :>

I can really hear the Joe Hisaishi influence in this piece—amazing job! It’s very emotional and fits the title perfectly compositionally.
Very good progression, like it a lot. I think it is beautiful orchestration and I can totally see it as an opening title.
You did a great job!
It's very nice
