Finally getting around to rating you back😀. 

Hearing prominent movement in 4ths/5ths in music, especially with the orchestral sound palette and the sequential nature of the melody you have in the Chorus parts always brings mind to the Emmerdale theme tune 😂.

Only thing I felt on my first listen was, that at 1:43 the impact of the arrangement pulling back would've been more powerful had it been just the solo piano, with the cello coming in a bit later (say, on the latter half of the interlude part), helping to build up to the repeat of the Chorus section (might just be my subjective opinion, so take with a grain salt 😅).

Really beautiful track, as I've probably said before on the discord, Really jealous of how in the hell you can make stuff like this only after a couple of months studying music 😀.

Thank you Iatu ❤️

I have no idea what Emmerdale is but I’ll look it to it lol.

1:43 that’s actually a great idea thank you for the feedback and could even make more sense visually (Miro notes)!!! 

I talked about it a bit on the discord but being so new, I feel like I “rush” a bit and am afraid of pauses, silences or even in this case, commuting too hard on a slow down. That’s definitely something I need to get more comfortable!

lol thank you for the last words ahahaha I’m definitely happy with what I ended up with and summed up both my initial understanding of theory, and I guess my “logic” from listening to ost’s all day lol.

Yeah, i have same thing with rushing, and especially having too much stuff going on at once is a bad habit for me. That's one of the reasons i've been trying to adopt a sort of pomodoro technique with music, i.e taking breaks while working on a track so i can listen with "fresh ears" and hear what sounds off.

One of the best resources I've found to be really helpful on all parts of composing for me, have been Alan Belkin's mini "lectures" on YouTube. Some of the material might feel a bit dense at first, but he has some wonderful lectures on making transitions across parts work, climax parts feel fulfilling and other good stuff. He's teaching style of showing examples of different ways to accomplish things and some that don't really work, instead of just "do this or its bad" has really helped me understand some concepts.

The videos are sort of "companion" videos to his book, but you don't need the book to follow along (i don't have it, but intending to probably get it)

oh my god I love you!!!

Thanks for the YouTube reference, I’ll definitely check and binge that asap. Thank you!!!
