We need more composers sharing their stuff in this forum, so I thought I might try this. I'd like to hear any of your guys' thoughts on these.
This piece is called "Misconceptions" and is for solo piano. It's being performed at one of my university's New Music concerts by a friend of mine.
This is something that's written by another friend of mine at school. It is part of a Mass that he wrote and I am one of the six singers in the recording (I'm one of the basses). We did the recording a bit over a year ago. We actually recorded two parts of it and I might upload the second if I get around to it.
Agnus Dei from the mass. (Not quite as good a recording... we spent like two hours learning and recording these and one other section so they're pretty rough).
More to come once I get more uploaded.
Edit: I'd also like if anyone else wanted to share their stuff in here.

Btw thanks for the thread support Food
What's the problem? Yeah myspace may be a heap of shit, but if you want to publicize your music on the cheap it's a pretty good choice. Plus, my brother and the guys he plays with really aren't the type of people who care about shitty sound quality or ugly site design or any of the other myriad reasons not to use that site.
edit: No problem, Hamju. Like I said, it's a great idea. By the way, I listened to the songs you posted. I enjoyed them, but I'm really too clueless about classical music (would your piano piece be considered classical?) to give you much of a helpful response.
Well, I'm glad you enjoyed it anyway. I don't really like classifying stuff (especially my own work) under the super blanket of "classical" music, so I just label it as "other".
The first one sounds like some of Satie's work.
The choral piece is now in my iTunes library.
The Agnus Dei is also cool.
Though an underestimated disease keeps me from contributing, I will be a regular consumer of this thread. Goddamn it, someone cure tone-deafness.
I guess I'm eternally biased about how the agnus dei "should" sound, since the first one I performed was from Rutter's Requiem, and it was completely bad-ass and dark. Around a minute or 2 into yours, where the tenors make the chords minor really reminded me of it. (in other words, definitely sounds great!)
Oh, and I'm one of the guitar players and I do the very little vocals that are there.
This one is instrumental, and as it stands it's my favourite. It's called Far Too Many Fingers, if you actually care.

There's a sorta kinda faster guitarish part somewheres in the middle of this one that definitely needs to be turned up, but I think it turned out pretty good as well. Again, no vocals, and no song name either.

Finally some vocals! This one has a few mistakes in it, and in the middle the other guitar player does this upstroke deal and it's supposed to be a mellow backround thing to keep it a little more upbeat, but it's way too loud and admittedly a little bit grating...it'll be changed in the final mix, and I promise it sounds a shit ton better that way! Also, it's called An Adventure/Romance Through The Ten Spatial Dimensions: Part Ten.

Oh, and sorry for the linkage. I can't embed from the site I have the songs posted on. Well, not here anyway.
