Abadoss Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 A little while ago, I got bored, so I took the Gold Saucer theme from FF7 and arranged it for organ. Anyway, here's the link: http://www.warnerpacific.edu/personal/kkeyn/music/Abadoss_-_Toccata_in_Gold.mp3 I would appreciate any and all feedback. Thanks.

Fishy Posted June 29, 2006 Share Posted June 29, 2006 Wow, this is really well done, I love the arrangement. It really suits the organ i think, however i'm not sure i can stand the whole thing if you get. I can't decide if it's to long or not. The key changes at the end are nice, but its the bit with the endless pedals at 2:07 through to about 2:45 that gets a bit too much. The rest of it is great though, i always thought this song was annoying but i really like this version. Because this is a solo instrument you need real emphasis on a very strong arrangement with attention to specific aspects of that instrument if your gonna submit it, and i think this is really getting there, but i would be hesitant of submitting it for some reason, i'm not sure why. Wait til you get a few more opinions, but yeah, good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phntm of the Opra Posted June 30, 2006 Share Posted June 30, 2006 Very interesting approach, It sounds kind of repetative despite you haveing lots of differant variations. I think you should try doing fugue type bits where the first part is repeated by a voice lower on the keyboard while the melody expands in the leading voice, this can extend parts and gives other parts more dramatic differances. In case you have never heard a fugue, here is and example. Listen to how the second voice picks up the same melody as the first voice had. Just a suggestion It's great mix as it is though, no biggy.

ocremixfan Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 good... but a bit repetitive! add more custom melody... and I liked the fugue suggestion by phntm! try it! I bet it will be a real good outcome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
