For my taste I think the ending happens too fast, I would have gone on for another couple of seconds, maybe just have the lower sounds.

Anyway, I think you did a superp job of using the arpeggio and emerald styles, and I'm looking forward to hearing more from you.

Hi Marty,

Thank you very much for your listening again and giving me the additional feedback. I think the best experience can be got by using good headphones for this type of music as you did, because we can hear every detail of songs and also enjoy exquisite sound such as strings and wind instruments very well.

Yes, I think the backing strings for the violins are playing a little bit too loud as if they want to compete with the violins, while those for the cellos are rather discreet as if they just want to support the cellos. I also think this difference of the characteristics of the backing strings is well balanced with that of the violins or cellos, and it produces good contrast between the first section and the second section. I myself like the cello section better as you do, but probably it will highly depend on my mood then.

As for the ending, probably you are right. Thank you for pointing it out.

Anyway, I am very glad you like it. I would be very happy if you could listen to other songs of mine by visiting my profile of Soundcloud or by using the superb searching feature of all user showcase songs of the forum.
