Super Castlevania IV - Boss Battle A

Short but tough as hell tune to do!  It was a struggle to finish this (and it's been years).
Please enjoy.

Super NES tunes that are already of excellent quality will always be though to do. I really liked how you threw in the heavy piano bit.  :D My only concern is that the strings seem just a tad on the weak side, pushing them below the SNES quality. Believe me, the last thing I want to do is point out the faults of a piece of work that's been in the works for years.  :'(

The composition is what took years.  The instrument samples being criticised doesn't trouble me as much.  Unfortunately, I do not have the means of using the big great samples with such a tune, since the composition is so powerful.  You actually lose polyphony because there are too many notes played at the same time (this will be fixed when I get a new computer).

I've always liked the Domain Boss track better than the Castle Boss track.

That being said, good job, Jorge! Any other plans for arranges? I would die a happy man if you arranged CV4's Bloody Tears. That version is plain epic.

I second this. It's my favorite version. Might be interesting to see it melded with the added segment of Rondo's too.

I think you mean SWEET VICTOLY!

Damn you Spongebob!

And Jorge, have you ever thought of making your own original pieces? That would be quite interesting. I mean, include familiar leitmotifs, but overall original compositions.
