Great thread idea! I guess you took my idea from my comment in the 'post your band' thread to the next level.
I like that piece you played here. Well done imo. Believe it or not (as a drummer), I started writing a symphony
It is nowhere near complete and tbh, I haven't touched it in a number of months now. This thread reminded me of it and maybe I'll finally get around to putting some more time in to finish. Naturally, I don't have an orchestra at my expense so it is all just in Finale for now.
I too have written some things on piano, but nothing quite as nice as what you've done here. I seem to approach it in the same manner as you, diddle around for a while with some improvisatory stuff and when something comes out that I particularly like, I start to build around that.
Edit: I'd also just like to say that I love e-flat minor 7 chords and intend on writing a piece around it one day.

Reason: was I supposed to say 1st or something cliché like that?
