The Phantoms of the PastWhoa . . . that's my impression of the opening chord: whoa!
This was your first piece? I'm not sure I recognise it . . . I'm guessing you may not have shown it when you finished it.

I am honoured to have such a velvety and darkly mysterious piece dedicated to me. Thank-you very much!

I like the descending chromatic lines, and the dark and slow atmosphere it evokes.
Reminds me of what I would think of as Russian music, for some reason.
I like.
Battle of BattlesIs this is a major or minor battle? I cannot fully determine which (other than the title, and the epic elements, which lend themselves to 'major battle').
By this stage you've definitely defined a sound world for the soundtrack, and the opening of this track really communicates that it's from
The Black Company soundtrack.

Okay, as I get further through the piece it communicate more and more that it's something major, but I couldn't tell at the beginning.
Yeah, this track doesn't really do it for me as much as some of your other work -- not that this is poor at all, just that I prefer other tracks.
