Hello everyone,

i have finally finished the work I had given a preview of some time ago, if you want to listen to it.

i am honestly very satisfied with the result, which does not mean that I am not open to criticism and negative opinions

unfortunately I cannot attach the score because, fingers crossed, perhaps it will be published

mov I - IL PRINCIPE RANOCCHIO.mp3
mov II . LA BELLA ADDORMENTATA.mp3
mov III - HANSEL e GRETEL.mp3
mov IV - IL GATTO CON GLI STIVALI.mp3

What can I say, from a "poor guy and egghead" I expected worse. They are beautiful Ale, what can I say... I am honored to be able to talk (and "argue") with someone like you

I wish with all my heart that they get published... but also performed, besides you have a stellar sampling.

Am I mistaken or had we already heard something?

Until next time and many congratulations again.

i had already proposed "the frog prince", when I still didn't know if I would be able to go forward with other pieces ...

Congratulations on your mastery of the orchestra, some atmospheres are truly worthy of being used as film music.

Essentially you handled the suite like a symphony, am I wrong? If so, what were your reasoning regarding the succession of movements (I am talking about their characteristics in terms of atmosphere and density, apart from more or less brightness)?

Aside from joining the chorus, compliments... but would the titles be in a certain sense "descriptive"?

Let's say that in the succession of pieces I chose a somewhat symphonic pacing because it always works: 1st moving, 2nd slow, 3rd with alternating atmospheres, a bit like a scherzo, 4th with a very pumped-up B. There isn't a precise design, however; it just seemed like the most engaging succession to me.

Marzapane, the titles only give an idea of the "soundscape" that one, if they wish, can strive to grasp. Often, to carry an idea forward, it is very useful for me to imagine a situation, even a vague one, which I then like to share, but the descriptive intent ends here; it is rather generic.

I like the rhythm and the entries of the wind instruments at the beginning of "Il principe Ranocchio". Is the time signature an alternation of 7/8 and 6/8? You orchestrated it well, this is evident from a non-"expert" listening. Up to 30" the overlapping of the instruments even suggests a longer development.
