"DAVID... NOOOO!... YOU GENIUS!..."
How could you?... how could you create something so absolutley christmas epic?
Why Mr.Orr... why?... :'(.
I don't stand a chance now. I could have worked 100 days on a piece and never have it come out like this. Good grief. There is so much to it... so proffesional... as always.
I was afraid of this. But I suppose it could be worse... I could lose to winterwind. :P
Well... thanks for the christmas spirit in the pretty package anyways. Your still one in a million.
Cheers Mate.

MMD, flattering words, but I think you are exaggerating a little. There are a lot of great submissions that have been entered into the contest. I was a little disappointed that Winterwind and some of the other "greats" didn't enter, I would have loved to see what they would have come up with.
At any rate, thanks for the review! I'm always checking your page for new material, so submit something new ASAP :)!

"Hehe Puts yah in the christmas mood"
Hey this piece would make a great contribution to any Christmas flash. Really full of life. I think Christmas jazz is wicked... I actually had this one version of jingles bells jazz I used to play, it was alot of fun.
With this piece I think your only problem is dissonance... just odds notes here and there.
Besides that though, great work and good luck mate. And thanks for your review.
Btw... lol 5/5... this score is just too low.

A review for the rising star of Newgrounds Classical.
A beautiful, uplifting and fun army march that's made it's way, ever so deservingly into the flashes of many of artists.
Your work is so well thought out and clearly devised of a great mind.
Me and you are going to do a lil collab someday.
If you permit.
Cheers and I believe I've given all your work it's appropriate 5.

Now that is some impressive music there... If you actually scroll up from the bottom of ur page to the top. You see the score increases.
Along with your talent.
Your top notch in my books friend... And hey... I've come outta my hole just long enough to say so.
Sincerely,
MMD
Author's Response:
Hey, man. I never noticed this review. I'm sorry :(
Thanks so much for taking the time. I'm glad you found this impressive haha. Yeah, that's true about the increasing scores of my songs...I think the big turning point for me was my Waltz no. 4. I'm honored to be top notch in your opinion. I hope you stay out of your hole :(
Again, thanks for reviewing my modest work.

I have no time at the moment to be constructively critical.
I will simply say that this is a well done orchestral ambience and I quite enjoyed it.
You will do great things.
Sincerely,

As my good friend MaestroRage pointed out. The voice is quite amazing... I don't think he realizes that it's actually you though hehe.
Truly Angelic... I would love for you to work on something much longer... so that I can sit and listen for hours on end.
I would even love for you to sing in a song of mine one day. Lord knows I could use an angel.
Sincerely,
MMD

Welcome to the classical section.
A brilliant piece, filled with anticipation and beauty.
I love the piano... of course... I live for the piano. The beggining is very pretty.
I don't fancy the abrupt ending. But I won't complain.
5/5 For you.
Sincerely,
MMD
Author's Response:
Why thank you! I'm usually don't have very good endings to my songs, I can agree with you on that. :P I'm glad you liked it, I hope you get a chance to listen to some more!

"By The Hand of The Maestro"
Another one bites the dust...
A brilliant piece to end upon my friend. It would seem we are more alike than many know :). Wherever you go... I know success will follow and I will always be right behind you in any decision you make.
Your song is lifting... epic... but not without the feeling of cold that surrounds it like... winter.
And NG shall be cold without you. At least to me. But I know that though you shall abandon the ever loved name of MaestroSorrow, your music shall forever remain as a testimony to the musician that was... and is to become.
May your summer bring much success...
I look forward to meeting you someday.

Oh the epic winters that will no doubt blow over my home will in a sense scar me. Don't worry though, i've left it for a hope of reaching a place I know I will enjoy being in. Hopefully I can destroy the competition with a fellow composer. Who knows eh ;).
Thanks for the review Dan, all the best wishes from me.

Thankyou Maestro,
This piece is absolutley breathtaking. So full of action... and beautifully written. I like the shaky strings.
You have been the greatest of friends to me. We have alot to continue with.
Thankyou this for this tribute. You've shown how much you truly care and I hope we shall stay friends for as long as possible.
I'll see you in Ontario sometime during my training I'm sure.
This piece... is too epic to be a tribute to me :).
Author's Response:
please, there is no such thing as "too" epic for you.
I truly hope we can meet when you're doing your training, t'would be awesome. You could sneak me in a stealth plane, and then you can break the speed of sound, and hurl me out, and you wouldn't hear me screaming bec...
well enough with that ;).
Thanks for the review Dan, take care of yourself eh.

Hello my friend,
haha... this is... well... sir. Send this into a computer gaming company. See what they say. This would make a a perfect video game introduction.
It's just so proffesional.
I'm in awe...
Can you tell?... I just keep hitting enter and writing more....
bah...
Well Mr.Maestro. It looks like you'll be taking your place in the sun from now on, right where you belong.
I on the other hand, have recently completed my last piece. My Finale. Unfortunitley I'll no longer be writing at newgrounds. I want to thank you. For all the support you've given me. The reviews... even emailing me in regards to a question I had. Your degree of proffesionalism stems beyond your music and I'm grateful. Make me proud mate.

Author's Response:
Well, I'm flattered to say the least! This isn't going into any professional video game, everything I put onto newgrounds is for newgrounds and, and will never be used in commercial stuff (with the exception of a few previews and what not).
Why are you leaving? Newgrounds is gonna miss you! Well, for whatever the reason, you've got my email. If you need anything, don't hesistate to send me some mail.
