Hi everyone,

Here's an orchestral piece that I've been working on as part of a larger suite of space-themed music. Any comments or criticisms that you might have would be most welcome!

fabulously EPIC, sir again with the majestic brass. Great sense of space. It came over huge and dynamic on my phones.
An all around enjoyable listening experience. thanks for sharing!

Beautifully constructed...
Fabulous sounds and music David.

I liked the dramatic intro, and the strings in the latter third of the piece had a beautiful sound. A great depiction of a journey into the unknown.

Good work

Nice one. I liked the composition and orchestration. Well done dynamic arrangement and mix. Sounds good

Most of it was quite imaginative and mysterious. The ending had more of your typical 'heartwarming' strings. I preferred the mysterious stuff but enjoyed it overall. First rate composition and mixing throughout.

This is excellent! It's cinematic and very well assembled. It's also diverse, structurally, which I really like to see/hear in music. I really loved the intense and moody edge of the first two thirds and really liked the cacophonous intro [edit: on second listen, I think maybe cacophonous isn't the right word; maybe discordant?]. Nice cello articulations too.

Thanks, Jace-BeOS! Glad you enjoyed it. I guess we could go with "cacophonous" for the first part, although discordant would work too. "Anxious" was probably the word that was most in my mind when I put it together.

Reminds me of Pluto, from The Planets Suite.
