Instrumental "Dance Rehearsal" (Original composition)

[musicsongwriter]

Hello, here is my instrumental piece I composed in February during FAWM - it's a songwriting site where songwriters are invited to compose and submit 14 compositions in 28 days. I didn't worry about the amount of compositions, just was inspired to compose new pieces. I'd love to hear your opinion about my piece and any suggestions you are happy to share with me. Thank you
Nadia

Nice composition, Nadia! I immediately see a ballroom when I hear this.

Regards,

This is quite lovely !!!

In fact I love it ... it remids me slightly of one of my favourite Norwegian composer/songwriter/authors Ketil Bjørnstad and my favourite album of his "Svart Piano" (Black Piano)

Great work and welcome to our little oasis of great music !!!

couldn't find any tunes from his "Svart piano" album on youtube, but found one of his most beautiful tunes "By the fjord" (literarly translated it should be "Summernight by the fjord")

here you get a better sense of the melody from one of Norways most treasured talents I think it's one of the most beautiful melodies ever written

Thank you so much for finding the links Yes, very beautiful compositions:) I'm very fond of Norwegian music. Grieg is one of my old time favourite composers. One of my amazing collaborators Kristian is also from Norway. Here are some links to our collaborations:

Wow, Nadia! I've heard a lot of your music, and this may be my favorite of yours. The jazziness put a smile on my face, especially because I was expecting something much more classical at first. A lot of power to your playing here. Can't wait to hear what you cook up for FAWM!
