Description
A short, solo piano soundtrack composed in a (self-imposed) time constraint of about 5 hours to force myself out of creative block...
I also wanted to incorporate a motif from a previous soundtrack I composed to practice relating my compositions to each other in, for example, a game setting; I decided to use the main melody from "Reunion."
As always, feedback regarding the composition is greatly appreciated.

I love this submission! It has such a great anime feel to it and the emotion in the melody is palpable. Really beautiful :)
Lovely piano piece, really enjoyed it. I felt the section after 1:06, where the melody gets a bit more swingy, could've been enhanced with a few grace notes introducing some of the phrases.
I really enjoyed listening to this! Such a playful piece. Listening to it sounds like watching the credits of a very nice indie game.
I liked your use of accidentals throughout the track and the slight bpm changes were a nice touch.
I do believe that the chords take up a bit too much attention away from the main melody. Turning them down just a little bit would go a long way.
Well done.
Now that's a pretty little thing :)
If you'd have some more time to expand on that, I'd love to hear some harmony/contrapuntal line every now and then, to spice things up a bit. Also, jump from intro to main part seems a bit too abrupt, something to glue both parts together would be nice - even a simple glissando would do the trick, but there are dozens of ways you can go about that.
As for technicalities, I'd say that chords seem to be a bit too loud compared to melody. Maybe it would also be good idea to put them a little bit lower - they steal too much spotlight just because they are right in the mids. Having melody so high on the other hand is preatty nice - gives off more whimsical, christmasy vibes :D
I'm always a fan of simple piano pieces.
