SO I have been listening to my the progression that I created and I realize that it sounds completely different every time i hear it. The week leading up to class I found myself somewhat unhappy with the tension and dissonance levels that were supposed to build to a climax.
I played the chords during class and for the first time i was not being critical but was just observing the sounds. I agree with several of the comments that I received and was able to use the feedback to modify the progression so that it follows a more logical progression of tension. My highest point of tension was chord 9 which is what i initially had planned.
Since the class i have re ordered some of the chords so that each one is a little more tense, until the descent into more 'relaxed' chords. It will definatly be interesting to hear these chords in different textures when I start composing for piano and another instrument.
anyway better go start that now....
