Debate topic for next Tuesday: Are cannons truly valid instruments for an orchestra? Or should they be replaced with something safer, like Tesla coils?

I've added "How She Sees the World" from Bioshock 2, a great, short, melancholy song that I love listening to and playing on piano. If any of you are percussionists like me, it functions as a great four-mallet vibes solo!

Cheers,

ah the grace notes.. I tried to put them in but something about my finale makes them sound really bad! thanks a lot for the other feedback, I will fix that stuff hopefully tomorrow if i have time!

I just wanted to let everyone know why i havent been putting out any arrangements recently, this is because I have marching band from 9-6 every day for the next two weeks. (I play snare in case anyone was wondering :) It's very exhausting, especially because my director adds on an extra hour to band each year, so when I was a freshman, it was only 8-5! This year is going to be very hard for me too, because of the difficulty of my schedule. Sorry if anyone was looking forward to Minecraft arrangements, I will get the next one out as soon as I can! Thanks for understanding.

Measure 47, what you have is right, so my bad. there is a part on the sound track at measure 47 that you don't have, its played on a string instrument and it has a rhythm like dotted 8th, 16th, dotted 8th, 16th, etc.
QuoteThe other parts are too loud. In measures 34 till 41 and 46, I hear the low Ds.
I should have said towards the end because the Ds fade out around measure 60.
Good job otherwise!

You don't have to ! the styles of the song are up to the arranger

Ahh Cat..I was gonna save that for last :P ive been trying to figure out what that rhythm is at the beginning, but i have no idea! help!

Anyway my feedback:

Measures 13 and 17, the right hand chord doesn't change, only the left hand does. Measures 37 and 38, consider making those sixteenth note triplets. Same thing in 42 and 43. In measure 48, however, those are definitely straight 16ths, thats the same in 54. Measure 47 that rhythm should really be dotted 8th 16th if you listen to the soundtrack that's what it is. In the left hand of the second piano, I'm not really hearing the low Ds, in my opinion they should be eighth rests.
Thats all.

Lol, measure 17 i have no idea, i guess i just thought those were 6ths and octaves? idk why.. I finished Moog City at around 11:30 last night so I guess i was tired.
Also I have PrintMusic which is the next version of Finale above notepad. I dont personally think the 8vb is necessary because all of those are just octaves, but i will add it in just to clear up any confusion! Thanks a lot for the feedback.

Ha i'm just kidding. Well I assume you don't get many people doing a whole soundtrack, since most games have at least like 25 songs!
