Description
A cinematic-type piece, this is my first composition with large-scale orchestral instrumentation. I composed the theme two years ago with the intention of creating a Narnia-themed album. Done completely in Finale, and rendered with Garritan sounds.

Welcome.... nice intro!
Wow, I can tell a lot of work went into this... very nice writing for orchestra here, I like the way you hand the themes off and leave space... sort of a promenade feel. Welcome to Macjams, you'll find a lot of kindred spirits here... Switched on Bach, aye? Yup, I had almost every album :-) So you must like Peter Schickele too. I look forward to hearing more of your works, and hope you get a chance to critique some of my stuff too.
ttfn,
Drakonis

Brandon,
Very nice! You handle the orchestral composing well from my uneducated viewpoint. I have always loved orchestral music, but have no formal training. This piece is really inspirational.
Very well done,
Stephen
