Oh wow this was fast.

I liked the piano that came after the bell theme. As are the brass section. Nicely done for the more powerful parts. As for the bell theme, well, I didn't feel that it was very connected with the rest of the music. If it's possible, maybe have a motif that you play throughout the song, but vary it by switching from minor to major and vice versa.

But otherwise, a solid piece. What did you use for brass, strings, and timpani?

This is what I did, for both the brass theme and the celeste (what you called bells) theme... If you didn't even notice that I was doing it, then I must have done a pretty good job at making it sound natural! =P

All of those were from Reason's default factory soundbank.

Oh god, I must be getting used to actual brass, as I thought these ones sounded nasty...:P
Okay, but very good! Maybe utilise the whole range of the Celeste for improvements? It was nice, but the Celeste has a whole twinkling sound up high, which I didn't hear any of...use it to its full potential!

I actually really hate the sound of the celeste low-down... I didn't think I had it THAT high up, did I? You might be hearing the glock instead, which is indeed rather high and tinkly.

Needs more timpani. And cowbell. Oh wait, there actually were timpanis and cowbells. Hahah. Needs more.

Nice one. Wasn't sure about the very beginning, but the very end was pretty cool.

I'm agreeing with iPie here. I really liked the ending (those were some delicious chords there), but the beginning felt kind of disjointed and a mish-mash of unrelated themes.

I think you can develop those ideas a lot more instead of just jumping from idea to idea. In the end, you develop those ideas, but not nearly as much as you could have if you didn't jump from theme to theme so much. (And somehow, I doubt that a really disjointed, black/white feel was what you're going for. =P)

Overall, though, it wasn't bad!
