I know that you want to have less instruments, but this song would feel more depth if you had a low one that plays the first note an octave lower at the start of every measure starting at 40, and holds the note for half or the duration of said measure. The same time you have the bell go off. You could do a similar thing without added instruments by having the main instrument, when it speeds up at 40, just go an octave lower and leave the higher notes to lead for that short span of time. Also, if you increased the volume of the percussion more at certain parts, like marching drums, the loud, deep roll of it would add further impact. It would be fun to play with, either way. =D

Er, I could have written that better. 'Higher notes' being the higher instruments.

all i have to say is i am not really happy with this piece so far, so i am letting it sit for a while as i finish a commission. I hope they like it
