Re: The symphonic poem \"Cantabile\" [mp3 download] (English)
Frederik - you should be proud of this work. It seems to have real purpose and direction coupled with a conviction of style. I find it exciting, like a book you cannot put down before you have read it to the end. I particularly like your play with tonality which makes it sound 'old' and 'modern' at the same time. It is unclear to me if this style is part of a post-modern movement or simply a reaction to music that is so difficult to listen to. You write for anyone rather than the select few who can appreciate serialism and heavy use of dissonance - perhaps yours is a logical conclusion to the situation creative arts are in today. Your work does not, however, sound archaic by any means, and that is quite an achievement.
Thanks for letting us into your tonal universe. What an enriching experience!
