Very nice first of all. I would add some reverb to a number of things there
to give it more space and dimension. Add some reverb to the third keyboard
(small amount) that comes in, the triangle, the timpani and snare drums.
I think that alone will breath a bunch of life into it.

Pull the timpanis up at the end so they crescendo up.

Pan the triangle to one side and if you have anything else like the triangle,
pan it to the other side.

Post your changes if you decide to make any. This is really nice.

JP, I actually listened on weds and I really liked it. Very majestic and
King Crimson-ish.

Here's a good sign: I played it in my studio. A good while later I
walked out to get the mail and found I was whistling the theme. I walked
back in the house and my wife was whistling it too. She did not even
know what it was - she had just overheard it from her area in the house.

you're right Bill. The melody is really great and that's a great test.

My thoughts. Vary cool piece of music. Theatrical,and slightly dramatic.

I like it. Am I hearing a bit of "Pomp and Circumstance" in the
middle there?

James--
thanks for taking the time to listen--
"slightly romantic?"
i think of it as a post- stravinsky piece in the model of the first part
of Petrushka...
cheers

Hye Paul--
thanks for the listen--
you have it exactly right--
i tried to sneak Elgar's melody in there
(the piece is called "Fanfare for a Fallen King," and thought
Elgar's tune a good crib--
smiling,
