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.
