1Overall Description
The gentle movements at the beginning remind of scenes like ghosts or despair. It's 5:13 total playing time. At first listen I was entranced to the end. No thought of whether or not it had what amount of repetition. No thought of arrangement techniques or instrument usage. It is these type of songs, so entrancing, that you can't really see anything out of sort. I have to give it a five because throughout my first listen I was too entertained to even criticize. When it occurred to me that I had not been paying attention to detail I had to listen to it a second and third time looking for something out of sort. Found nothing. Great Track.
 
2Creativity Description
You can't correctly take points for the decision of the artists choice of genre. However, how well they represent the genre can be the reason to add points. In this case, the artist represents beyond what seems to be the fine line. I hear some progressions that seem to be more less modern rock or pop progressions, but made to fit the piece so well. Progressions are more universal than previously imagined. This piece shows that. But that's at a closer listen.
 
3Artistic License Description
There are times in the song that an extended time frame of syncopation is used. Whether on purpose or not it is beautiful. Some times you expect by the first few moments of a note that it is a vocal when in fact it is a string. You can't actually tell till it has faded in enough to discern. I consider this syncopation. It is an interesting usage of it as well. A less common rarity.
 
4Arrangement Description
The progression goes from a silent string of wind to great gusts of passion. In arrangement this adds an instincually noticeable complexity. Keeps you in the listening of the song without having to think about it too much. Just feeling more less a movement of emotion. The clearing of the mind and resting of the soul.
 
5Sound Quality Description
Syncopation is a good way of blending. To make an instrument end where a voice blends in at the same note. That is syncopation. It almost sounds like an instrument becomes a living person. Sound quality and instrumentation is life like. There are no contrasts of disturbance.
 
6Vocals Description
Beautiful. Reminds me of the Phantom of The Opera. The lead female character. Subtle and soft. No real attack, but a breathing into existing. Don't know where you found these vocals, but I'd say you have something here. Will be listening for future usage of vocals. Message me if you do another like this.
 
7Does it work as a piece of music Description
More than works as a piece of music. Actually works as an entire symphony. You could probably make an entire album based on this work and the concept thereof. It is hard to find these compositions at times. I never really come across them all that much. But am glad I did.
