Answer 9

I like your voice.

Becoming an artist however, is something completely different. Go to open mic nights. Make connections. Go see local bands. Make friends with the band members, their agents and producers. If you have friends who are Mue's (music engineers) have them make a demo. Pass them out. Promote. Promote. Promote. Mostly, its about connections. Perform everywhere, even if you don't want to.

1) I like you instrumentation. I think your piano needs way more filling (bass/left hand wise) out and you should really push that viola to the forefront. Give her more than quarters and halves.

2) Also, your vocal line could use a bit more variation. Change up the repetative melodic lines. This can be done with simple ornaments, a bit of vibrato, changing one note.

3) You might want to add some rhythm by having the violist tap on the shoulder of her viola or learn some cool percussive things she can do with the bow. (I suggest listening to the Turtle Island STring quartet for that. They're brilliant)

Hope that helps!
