Man, you guys certainly love classical music.

The entire symphony feels like a long intro to something.

All 22 minutes of it?

Yeah. As if the song was just about to start when it actually ends.

Yeah. As if the song was just about to start when it actually ends.

I don't imagine many pop songs have intro music that's broken up into four movements.

That's quite a project. I wish I could write something like that. I enjoyed it!

I think the second movement stands out. I like the waltz in minor key, especially the lead up to minute 2 and the oboe/woodwind ensemble bit immediately after that. That was the best part of the symphony for me. For some reason, themes in the second movement reminded me of the carnival level in Banjo-Tooie. I don't know why.

The only thing I didn't really like was how often a quick decrescendo-crescendo was used in the first movement. I am not sure if that's just a function of the synthetic playback, though, or not. 

[werothegreat]

I'm glad you liked it!  I am somewhat surprised that you liked the Waltz the most, though.  Some others I've showed it to were eh on that one, but really liked the third movement.  Well, something for everyone, I guess. 

[WalrusMcFishSr]

For some reason, the first movement makes me want to learn about how to play Smithy...

[Dsell]

I like it quite a lot! Particularly the first movement. Its overall feel plus the lower-quality output make it feel very much like a great theme from a video game, which I appreciate. I do agree with Polk that the sudden decrescendo-crescendo could be more subtle, maybe 50-75% the amount of decrescendo you've got now.

It's actually been stuck in my head for much of the evening.

Then I did my job right.
