Wow, i gotta say this is amazing work, its got a beautiful combination of instruments, and i love the atonal chords. it takes some real talent to write something like this man. also, was this recorded live?

Thank you for your kind words; and to answer your question, yes this was recorded live, it is a real group playing my piece.

wow, its so rare to actually find live recordings of classical music, i lookforward to the second movement dude

ooh very nice work...im generally not a fan or atonal work, but you managed to mesh it well enough to keep the sound have a nice emotion that drives through the entirety of the piece. Great work! Cant wait to hear the next movement!

Thank you! Atonal music is nice if done right, just like there can be both nice and ugly tonal works, there can be both for atonal as well. I am glad you felt the emotion I felt writing this piece.

i definitely agree with you there...it just seems to be much harder to do in an atonal work than a tonal piece. If there is no emotion, it isnt music ;)

How wonderful! All the parts do sound very "hidden" if you know what I mean, they're there but not as well brought out as they could be, and all those "phrases" that just seem to come in and go (as well as the independent parts that come out and then join the "harmony" whilst another takes it's place) all so give the feeling of something private, I would have thought something similar to what you said if you hadn't written anything, I wouldn't immediately think of love, but more of fantastic woodland creatures hiding in the forest at night and the music tells the sights of a fellow that just happened to be there catching glimpses of those dryads and magical beings~

And I love how you use atonality, it's lyrical, soft and really is natural sounding, unlike serialism, which is quite synthetic to my ears (though I must admit that Schoenberg's "A Survivor from Warsaw" is one of my favourite pieces, by that I mean that I love serialism and harsher sounds too, but I'd need to really listen, I could hear this anywhere any-time!)

So, lovely composition, I can tell that there's a story behind it, but it's not so "grandly" put out that it's bloody obvious, nice and subtle (but not as subtle as me, I'm too subtle, I think, I doubt anyone but myself could hear why I think such and such notes actually represent this and that)

Thank you. as I said earlier to Zionia, if done right, atonality can sound beautiful as well; and don't rule out serialism, when done right that can be beautiful to! Thank you again for your great comments.

Oh, I know atonality can sound great, and so can serialism, my music collection doesn't just have music written before the nineteen hundreds, a good tenth of it is of "contemporary" composers, some of my favourite names are Carlo Chiarappa, Alfred Schlee, Massimo Mila, Edoardo Sanguineti to name a few, of course all the greats like Stockhousen, Boulez, Berio, Schoenberg, Berg and Webern don't even have to be mentioned!
Of course atonality and serialism are beautiful! Really, I love all forms of music, I can even like quite a few examples of (extremely contemporary) popular styles.

So...did you tell her that you loved her! You put this much into it, you had to say so, DETAILS followed by a posted musical piece to match the answer. Hehe

I'm still learning the lingo, all i know so far is entune lolz. It's a rather fun piece though wish I could add more coment about it, just dont know what to say.

Nice. :3

I usually visualize different colors for different keys, yet when I hear atonal music I think more of blacks, whites and grays.
