Hey everybody, I'm back after a few months of posting nothing. I've been working on an electric guitar concerto. It has some obvious metal crossover, and some classical. So far, I've only written up until the first modulation in B minor, and it stills needs a lot of work. The guitar throughout will have dropped-B tuning (B F# B E G# C#). I know this is the first post in the metal section, which says a lot about your respective musical tastes, but this isn't metal that will gross you out. I hope you enjoy it.

Oh yeah, the tremolos that the first and second violins have at measure 30 are not supposed to be played as written, it just sounds better midi-wise they way I arranged it. In reality the first should have single note tremolo B, A, then quarter note G. Second violins should have G, F#, then E. If you change it to the way I just described, you can see how it sounds different (and worse).
