short & simple, to the point theme composition

heyYou might want to try to play this piece with 4 instruments - violin, viola, cello, bass - all solo.Start the piece with only the violin playing the melody, when you feel like it's time, add a cello, and then the others and build all the way to the end - perhaps toward the end the choir can come in...I read a great interview with Quincy Jones one time - he was talking about melodies - he said if you can't play the melody with 1 finger and have it be memorable, the melody isn't strong enough. (or something to that effect)your melody here is strong, I felt like you are needlessly covering it up...oops - I'll be quite now - Time for Football!

Hi Petez If it were me, I wouldn't bring in all those strings til later - start it off much simpler, and build it slowly, so by the end you have your grand finale. Just my thoughts - keep up th e good work!Cher
