1Overall Description
O.K., you must be in a romantic mood to fully appreciate this one... and have some free time as well. :) This is a five-part piece with more than 18 minutes! Very peaceful and at the same time very strong and creative, a nice blend of pianos, synths, percussions and everything you might want to hear in this genre. Despite it’s lenght this is not a boring song because the five chapters are quite different from each other (although the mood stays the same). It’s definitely worth the listen.
 
2Creativity Description
It’s difficult to constantly be creative and dynamic for about eighteen minutes in the same song and following the same style. The artist did a nice work here and in the overall this is not a repetitive song - although at spaces I wished the next part would begin sooner. The only flaw: it goes very well for about eighteen minutes and then it just ends too quickly (I don’t believe I’m writing this about a 18-minute song!) I think it would sound better if the song faded out in the last minute instead of that abrupt end.
 
3Arrangement Description
I like how this song flows, the connection between all five parts is great. I really like the pannings. I believe that in part one there are two lead synths which are a bit too low (example: the sixth minute). But that can be just a matter of “taste”.
 
4Sound Quality Description
The instruments are the ones we might expect from this genre, and they perfectly combine together. No flaws in the production, it sound great to me.
 
5Does it work as a piece of music Description
Definitely, it works as a piece of music. The fact of having an unusual lenght is not a bad thing. It’s quite solid as a whole and considering the genre this is a very good work!
