I'm assuming that you are looking for some feedback. Hopefully that's the case cause here goes: 1. The entrance of the strings sounds synthetic. I think it's probably the violas and they are a tough section to tame in EWQLO. Smoothing out the velocity will help a lot in this regard.2. If the piano is meant to be the melody then the orchestra should be mixed behind it.3. When the oboe goes out the first time it sounds very abrupt. Compositionally it sounds like you are picking up its line in the piano but because of the mix, it doesn't work. You could use another complementary instrument (flute perhaps) to double the piano melody to give it some continuity after the oboe goes out. In other words, use different instruments to play different sections of the melody. You kind of do this after the second oboe entrance with the horn and it sounds a bit smoother.4. Your ending is a bit abrupt Looking forward to hearing the finished piece.Mazz

I thought it sounded quite nice. I assume the ending will be sorted out. It seems to completely cut out.You might get this into a library.

Thanks mazz and jeffe glad you wanted to listen to it. Well I´m not so good at this type of music and I agree there are a whole lot of problems still to be sorted out with this piece. It´s just the general idéa of the arrangement I´m showing here, the instruments involved will stay the same I´m afraid and play pretty much the same melodys as they do here. I´ll fix what needs to be fixed though regarding compleeting the piece and individuall problems regarding how the instruments sounds. ThanksGöran
