Song: The Procession

Positive Comments: The string sounds are excellent, and beautifully shaped, and I like the spaces in the arrangement which let the music breathe. It was a pleasant surprise when the piano came in, although I think the sound could be improved, maybe with a more spacious reverb or some subtle EQ. This would clearly make an excellent bed for film or television, and could work with dialogue over as there is plenty of space in the arrangement.
Constructive Comments: As a stand-alone piece, I think it could benefit from a more organic structure perhaps, as there is little development of the (very nice) ideas which are presented, first by the strings and then by the piano. Is it a section of a piano concerto perhaps? If so it could be nicely extended, and have some more harmonic and textural development too. As an underscore it would work very well, and I suspect this was what it was meant for. A sincere and emotional piece though, with good intensity and honey. I did enjoy listening. Thanks for letting me hear it, and good luck with all your musical ventures.Rob
