And here's another composition... I'm not too keen on this one (where would it even fit theme-wise? I was thinking pirate at the start but it's a bit too happy, I fear). "Voyage" for percussion ensemble!

I like this one — it’s very peppy! I’m not sure where it’d fit, or if it’d work for DV, but it’s a great departure from the other tunes. 🎼🎶❤️🎵

Yeah, I have no clue where it would fit either! 😂 It’s quite fun though.
Bonus track time then. 😎

And with that, I have finished my four springtime compositions. Presenting the final installment - "Sunflowers" for oboe, flute, harp, and celeste, plus another folk song you may recognize. Enjoy!

I’m finally caught up, I’ve listened to all your songs OboeKade! They’re all beautiful and very different from each other. It’s hard for me to say which is my fave, but of the ones I listened to today, Embers is my favorite of the day!

[OboeKade]

Thank you for all the kind words! I finished my final space-themed track, taking a slightly different route to balance the slow piano features I've already created. "Pulsar" for celeste, harp, cello, and violin. Enjoy!

I love it! It reminds me of the Haunted House song from several years ago. Pulsar has an occasional spookiness to it — then it switches to spunky! 👻

This one is my new fave!! I agree with adlerist it does sound spooky. It could be a scary space theme crossover! 👽
Amazing work, OboeKade!

I've listened to all of your songs while I read the forum. ☺️ I think they'll go nicely with DragonVale! I don't know if you're planning on doing this for a living, but you could compose music for games.

[OboeKade]

Thank you all again for all the kind words! sylviasylvester, I'm definitely considering doing more of these composition "side hustles" if you will - making music is so much fun!

Now comes the time for my final autumn/campfire themed piece - "Cinder" for flute, oboe, celeste, harmonica, cello, and classical guitar. Enjoy!

This is a very nice and calming way to wrap up autumn (which incidentally is the best season 🍂🍁), while extinguish the last of the campfires.

Brilliant, OboeKade!

[OboeKade]

Remember that "odd one out" percussion ensemble piece I wrote entitled Voyage? I rewrote it to better fit the pirate theme - and lo and behold, I think it actually has a place now. Enjoy!

Aaaaaaaaand I've finished my final DV piece. "Treasure" for piccolo, bassoon, tambourine, bass drum, violin, cello, and chimes. Enjoy! It's been an incredibly fun journey.

Very nice OboeKade ! I like all the music, but I still like Cascade the best! 

Edit: I forgot to say how impressed I am! You're extremely talented!!

oh man you’ve been busy! There are 8 songs in here I missed. I didn’t think I was away from the forum that long! I’ll listen to all of them this week, it’s pretty late over here right now. Thanks!

[OboeKade]

Thank you again for all the kind words! I’ve uploaded my album to SoundCloud to make for better listening and distribution - I thought I’d share it here too! m.soundcloud.com/kade-jackson-425244931/sets/coruscations

"The Beautiful Beast"


This contest theme was tricky, added themes of stained glass and the descriptions of the different creatures the beast was described as throughout the years.

[MinyaZ]

This is incredible Worms. It is a beautiful merge of Rose and Thorn. It has really got the Beauty and the Beast depicted. I really love how the baby is holding its tail. Look forward to seeing this one in an upcoming event.  🤞 😃
