"What do you think about the sound? I used pianoteq8 with the steinway D (modified)"

I really like the sound very much. My first reaction was - is this Ptq or....is it a very well tuned real Grand piano ! Because of the nice low bass tones , very convincing to me. Listening again, now, - I love it, the sound

Best,

Stig

Thank you for your critique and you are totally right. Have to focus more for my next medley. I guess i tried to squeeze in too much 'impressiveness'. Also some parts i played unwillingly too fast. But i guess we all are continuously learning. For the name I really like that however I will collect a few more suggestions first

Wow! You can play fast, bravo Pianoten.

There are many good sections, pieces, in those 7 minutes and 49 seconds. I am not the right one to tell how to improve, I’m an amateur that play and make music, but not professional but I have opinions about this…

There could be several longer slower parts (you have some very short sections, very good ones but has to be longer - like your piece Grey and Blue).

The idea is to get a coherent piece - logically, ordered integrated sections. To get ”clarity” and get understandable music. The elements, fast, slow and whatever, have to ”hang” together to produce meaning.

I think you did as I do, when I’m myself searching for ideas and just play sections to get a ”draft”, I’m mainly concerned with getting music in my daw, not with making sure the sections I record interconnect well so that a listener can process my reasoning……

Then I take some good sections and make them longer, and try to play a continuation….Sometimes a piece is born
Here an example of such thing, I had several short parts and finally made this piece.

And, the name - well your piece is not ready but it is vey ”festive”, so I suggest ”Arrival” or ”Arrival of the ….? something
