a little Danny Elfman. A little Yann Tiersen.

some very beautiful piano playing on this. Timing issues aside, I really enjoyed the pacing on this and the unexpected chordal movements at times. This is great and I can't wait to hear the final. Please let me know when you've uploaded it so I don't miss it.

I will send a note, when this movement is finished.

Danny Elfmann, Yann Tiersen? I am honored... yes, they have inspired me a lot with there marvellous soundtracks.

This piece is so different from your 'Area' stuff and so stands out in a different way.

Your piano playing is very well done and the piece as a whole kept my interest from start to finish. There was not too much of anything.

I'll be watching and waiting for the next installment.

Tske care.

Paul.

Yes, that's my other side of making music. It is still only a snapshot, not finished, but I needed to post something, just to make it real for me, that it is growing....

Thanks for listening and your appreciated comment.

I have no idea what the divding line is between romantic classical music and film scores, but as you can see from the Elfman comment, you're in danger of falling on the cinematic side.

(While I'm typing this, the theme recurs, and that missing beat makes me mentally stumble. That's funny. Keeps the track from being predictable.)

Is this the sketch for a movement? Part of a movement? What you have a theme, a cadenza, and the theme recurring. For a true concerto that's missing a couple of bits. For instance, the solo instrument is supposed to elaborate on the theme. Your middle part, while well played and quite sonorous, is a bit free in character: too far removed from the theme. I think this needs some more playing with the theme to anchor it in the listener's mind, before you can get that far away.

Just some thoughts, based on hearing too many classical concertos. You're of course free to invent your own form.

Thank you for your very appreciated and constructive comment!

I have a complete three movement concert in my head. This is only a small part of the second movement, and I just wanted to post it... The theme is still too cinematic, but thats in a way a instrumentation and dynamic issue...
I will not fulfill the complete classical structure, but I want to create something, which is more a concert than a soundtrack. But I am not disturbed by any cinematic influence. I just let it happen.
Thank you for listening!

Like the stops and goes. Breaking into the slow sound is striking. Delicately done. Your flow with the slow, is graceful. An usual assortment of slow and a faster pace but really seems to fit.

Love the orchestration

A very nice start, with lots of promise for a wonderfully beautiful finished product. Based on your "snapshot", I look forward to it.

God bless,

Thanks a lot for stopping by and leaving a comment.

I post this little pieces of my work to create some self pressure and some "Go on, I am looking for the complete one" by the comments as well as getting some hints and thoughts.

Glad you like it, this pushes me to go on.

this is very elaborate and it sounds good though it's still unfinished.

What can I say: I am working on this movement and at the moment it gets a slightly different mood.
Thanks for listening!

Well Bernd, this moved me alright. I am always in awe of folks who can do this type of music. I just make a lot of racket. This is divine!

Be well!

I just did not see that you stopped by. Sorry for that.

Thank you, I'm honoured by your comment.

I love your music, too; and I am a little jealous, because I cannot create such nice songs as you. That's funny, isn't it?

Greetings from Lower Saxony,

I too look forward to the final work, knowing it's a big task. Nice phrasing, and a delicate orchestration suitable to the piece.
