Escape from Colditz Castle

https://soundcloud.com/john-freese/esca ... itz-castle

The setting of this composition is Colditz Castle, one of the strongest guarded POW camps in WW2.

I'm very pleased with how this turned out. Exported using Notion 4.

Any feedback is much appreciated, especially form/orchestration.

John

My compliments. I like the tension and the colours. Good job.
Claudio

Thanks Claudio!

I liked it very much: my compliments on a skillful composition.

May I ask you a couple of questions John?

1. Did you use anything other than Notion 4 to compose this piece? Any other products, like GPO or anything?

2. How long have you been composing, and do you have a formal musical education?

Thanks for sharing--I look forward to hearing more of your Notion compositions.

Thanks for listening, saintdufus.
1. I used a few VST's, however everything was written and exported out of N4.
2. Probably 5-6 years. Yes, some theory classes at university.

Thanks, I admire what you've achieved in that time.

One more question: would it be possible to view your score for *Escape from Colditz Castle*? I would like to study it and see how you created it. Much obliged!

I apologize for the late reply saint, It's been a rough couple of weeks. I'll get the score to you in a few days. PM me your e-mail address.
