Song: Amazing Grace
Reviewer: sonya watts
Positive Comments: This was an interesting piece because I felt like it was geared towards a movie scene where we actually got to see the player start the recording. I felt very “in the room” with it. The guitar sounds beautiful and the melody is very pretty. The music itself is really lovely, and I could definitely listen to the song over and over. Peaceful and relaxing, and uplifting. There were certain parts that made me want to just close my eyes and take it all in. Great work!
Constructive Comments: I don’t have any suggestions for the arrangement because I don’t really know anything about guitar music other than it was beautiful music. I’d like to hear more from this artist, like a full instrumental tract that is clean all the way through with no “recording” sounds, so I could just start it while I’m sitting on the beach and listen for some peaceful day dreaming. I’m not sure exactly where this would be placed as it feels more like a live piece. I checked NA for marketability only because I just don’t know. I would say if the intention is to use it as an instrumental it would probably need to be re-recorded straight with no sounds of starting the recording or stopping the recording, but again that is based on what the artist wants to market towards. The guitar music itself is very beautiful.
