“i really like the simple flow of 6/8 in this track, the left had accentuates the feeling very well. the melody is pleasant and emotional but i feel overall the song is very quiet, even for a piano song. regardless its a great performance and speaks to the heart with clarity. i love the buildup at the minute mark”

I really love the simple 6/8 time flow of this song. The left hand really brings out that feeling effectively. The melody is pleasant and emotive, though the overall volume feels quite low—even considering it is a piano piece. Nevertheless, it is a superb performance that speaks clearly to the heart. I particularly like the section around the one-minute mark where the emotion builds up.

“Ah I really appreciate for once hearing a genuine "melody", because so many of the solo piano pieces are just arpeggios and mood setting. This is a sweet, evocative tune, and so well played. And it does evoke a feeling of a very romantic dream. Glad to have heard this. ”

Ah, it is truly wonderful to hear a proper "melody" for a change, as so many piano solos stop at mere arpeggios and atmospheric textures. This piece features a sweet, evocative melody, and the performance is excellent. It feels just like dreaming a romantic dream. I am delighted to have heard this piece.

“Hola! que bonita pieza. Tiene una melodia hermosa y un desarrollo melodico, armonico, formal y dinamico. Me encanta Tal vez me hubiera gustado (por gusto personal), un sonido de piano mas intimo y mas cercano. Felicitaciones”

Hello! This is a truly beautiful work. The melody is lovely, and the melody, harmony, form, and dynamics all evolve beautifully. I really like it. However, for my personal taste, I would have preferred the piano sound to be a bit more intimate and close. Congratulations.

“Tus composiciones tienen algo que siempre siento que se conectan entre ellas. Pero esta ha sido de otro nivel, la armonia es hermosa. Me han encantado los momentos que suena el cuarto grado menor, siempre logra conmoverme. ”

There is something about your works that always gives the impression of being interconnected. This piece, however, takes it a step further. The harmonies are beautiful. I especially loved the moments where the IV chord—played as a block chord—resonated; it moves the heart every time.
