I debated as to whether or not i should put this here.

I decided it was a mistake all round, but I finished it this morning and at the moment I have no where else to hang it.

i suppose It will have no more meaning to the gentlemen here than a string of pearls to an ape.

You should never hesitate to post music.

Fear not the sound of negativity nor positives. For those that cast
a shadow may stand alone in the dark. Step lively with the gift for
it has smiled on my ears. The gift of music has befriended you in
charachter and surprise.

The place is more interesting if you post music but having said that, there are certainly dark forces that are hovering nearby to rip the crumb of bread from yon babes mouths.

Be wary all ye who enter here...guard up or suffer the consequences.

(Notice no lol here)

I see you kept the mad scientist locked up long enough to write something a little more appealing to the ears of the masses. :shock: :)
Very nice. I think I had the ghost of Clarence Clemmons in my head for part of the piece in place of the violin.

For not one among you has talented wings to spread wider than another.
He with shoulders broad and strong and gumption twice as thee. Shall
press ivory and string in quest of proudness. All in all the least among you
should keep quickly afoot in pursuit of betterment. The bitter words of
those with empty charachter in later days may fall upon dismay. For
each is a temple to ones self.[/b]

As a former violinist I absolutely love this! One question is this you playing and if so which instrument? :shock:

I was wondering,
do you write this prose yourself?
if so you need to join up with a composer, you have talent. at the very least a grand aspiration.

oh no,
performing at this level would take at least 2 weeks of constant rehearsal, at least for me it would.
I have far too many ideas, to turn them out as finished performances.
If god willing they are ever performed they will be performed by trained musicians.

I Promised myself to ignore you and not listen... By My curiosity got the best of me.

In short... (My opinion only) It has some 'prettyness' about it , which speaks volumes for that lovely instrument we know to be the violin...(I could tell this was keyboard generated . There is only one guy I know who can pull that off with flying colors (Max Richter)) The track is adequate, but it doesn't 'move'. Seems to suspend in a fixed spot for the duration of the piece. Not really memorable...

It seems you attempted to open this up as a Sonata (classical form) ... But, You never made it past the first section. ( Was this supposed to be part of a bigger piece?)

There were parts of the piano that did not agree with the violin. A clash of roles... If the Gift is about dabbling with an artifact, unraveling it, discovering its contents... All I got was the 'dabbling with it' part


In classical terms, Your violin playing probably wouldn't make the 1st, 2nd or 3rd chair... But It suffices for the pop audience... (Might even be plausible in a greenich Village coffee house....)

well i hoped you wouldn't bother
cause I really didn't want to hear about the terms and people you googled recently just to say something bad about it.

it would take several paragraphs to answer all your wrong assumptions.
but seriously, what would it serve?

Ive actually listen to some top notch musicians in a Greenwich village coffee house and my daughter and her husband use these places to keep many good classical musicians employed.
yes if you must know, some of them are black some of them are hispanic and some of them are gay. some of them are a mixture of all three. at least that's the rumor.
Hendrix was discovered in a Greenwich village coffee house, so the story goes.
and just so you know "sonata" just means "a piece that is played", it doesn't really mean anything more than that.

A nice piece... easy on the ears. It would be fun to perform this live as a duet. Your music often runs closer to Schoenburg or Charles Ives which is a lot more challenging for these old ears to listen to. Bravo!
