Waltz the Horizon

By MaximumGoose on March 10, 2024 8:55 pm

Took a week off for my mother's birthday and some family events, but we're back at it again.

This week's prompt was "Goth Waltz" and while it didn't exactly stick to that original vision, I do like where it ended up. This is my first time composing something ostensibly "classical" in Ableton Live rather than in something like Sibelius, and it was a fun process.

It definitely ended up more piratey, but it was fun to work in that space so I just ran with it.

What a pretty waltz! Sounds cynical and steadfast. Love the instrumentation and arrangement here.

It definitely does get a little goth when the harpsichord hits. Goth pirates.
