Two Scandinavian Folk Songs, Orchestrated

[mediumaevum]

I arranged these two Scandinavian folk songs, "Who can sail without the wind?" and "Drømte mig en drøm" (Dreamt a Dream).

The first is a Swedish/Finnish Folk Melody, the second is a Danish hymn written in the 14th century.

I made my own arrangements and orchestrated them.

Since it's not an original composition I'll just comment on the orchestration and the mix.

First Track:

Orchestration - Nice. Nothing fancy but doesn't have to be. Serves its purpose.

Mix - Clean, clear. Again, nothing fancy but it works.

All in all, well done. I give you an overall score of 9 out of 10.

Second Track:

Orchestration - A lot simpler. Still works fine.

Mix - About the same as other track. Piano could maybe be a db louder.

Overall, 8.75 out of 10

My preference was the 2nd, it seems to be more pleasant to the ear although the pluck of the harp did distract in its volume and placement, the 1st had some frequencies that were a bit too piercing and took my concentration away. Overall they sounded simple but interesting
