A DELECTATION OF WOOLGATHERING - Symphony Orchestra (Sosnowski)

[etLux]

Fantastic David! Will be back later - running late for work!

For heaven's sake, Graham, you must give up work immediately,
to have more time for writing!

Thanks for listening and the kind word, Graham.

My best,

David,

THIS IS MUSIC!!!

After consulting the dictionary (hehe, I am learning also new vocabulary every time you post something) I have to say that your woolgatherings are indeed delicious! Every note has a meaning to me, I am listening for the third time now and will return often since I find new aspects every time.

I want this to be played in concerts! More, please!


With admiration

Hannes

Perhaps I should buy stock in www.Dictionary.com ... lol. I had
a rather difficult time naming this one, Hannes. More a sketch
than a formal piece, it is a reflection of my pondering (woolgathering)
many things -- some with regret, some not -- as I look out over the
beginnings of another autumn. At times I feel my years and the many
consequences of them; but also, sometimes, the flavor of those years
is sweet.

Thank you for the kind comments, my friend!

My best,

absolutely wonderful David!!!!!
I don't wanna miss any of your works!!!

I love all of them!!!

In this piece you amazed me in how you handle different parts of the orchestra!!!


All the best,
Roberto

Roberto! I am so pleased you made it by for a listen, my
friend. As I have said before, no work of mine is complete
until Roberto Ferrari has heard it!

The orchestra in this is, as in much I do, handled much
like a group of soloists, less traditionally, more of a chamber
music approach to it.

Thank you for the kindness of your comments, Roberto.

Always my best,


David

Ah, home at last - time to pour a glass of claret and enjoy some wonderful music!

David, this is a great listen. There's so much going on here to keep the attention without being cluttered or over busy. I love the sense of transparency and clarity - and the white space that shows up in the score! Gorgeous flute writing (especially around bar 79) and I like the way the strings support rather than dominate.

Regards, Graham

Yes, as others have said, you certainly have a distinct unique style. Great work, as usual I enjoyed your orchestration. Thanks for providing the score, it's always nice to follow along.

[Fabio]

David, the coherent and fluid language of your last works is improving peice after piece. It seems evolving to an euphonic but actual and rich modern style.

Are you just following ideas and colours, or did you create some musical structure (melodic, harmonic or formal) to support it?

I expect that the love for rapsodic and contrasting writing of your first works, and the actual research for more continous flow, may finally blend in a smooth balanced but episodic great work...you are already composing it...aren't you?

[etLux]

this is great. Really nice work!! Great handling of the orchestra and it some really great things happening in this piece. Great rendering.

Thanks for the good word, Chris... especially concerning
the rendering. My hearing isn't the best; so if I get that
near right, it's largely by accident... lol.

My best,

Beautiful -- and I enjoyed following the score -- you make it look easy!

Your music always has a fresh *crispness* too it. I picture a glimmer of light dancing around on the floor as it shines through swaying tree branches on a lazy sunday afternoon. Or a leaf caught in the wind, sometimes falling, sometimes soaring, sometimes swirling. Clear and fresh music for when the air is just beginning to smell like autumn.

Excellent work, I look forward to the next one!

Nice colorations, Mr. Dave. This is one of your best ever.

This is not my preferred style of music, but I like it.

Thanks for letting us hear it.

My best,

Larry

Thanks for the good word, Larry.

I know this piece is probably like visiting Pluto
for you... rofl... so I doubly appreciate the
kindness of taking time to listen, my friend.

Always my best,

David

David,

Very nicely done. A great diversity of expressions and emotions let out here in form and color. Some very interesting instrumentation and solos throughout.
