This is a decent piece. I have to agree with Evisma. Overall, it's a good tune, but the guitars don't quite fit. I think with the nature of this track being heavier in emotion, and low end, you probably could have played the guitars an octave, or even two, lower. At least the chugs in the beginning. Up until the 3:00 mark, anyhow. As far as the solo goes, like Evisma said, it did sound improvised. Or even a last minute decision from being caught up in the excitement of having a nearly finished track. I think the solo that comes in at 3;06 should be played slower with more deliberation, and restraint. With the orchestral backdrop being so massive and "heavy" this solo is too choppy. I'll leave a link here for you to check out as a rough example. Even if you don't like metal, this is a good example, because the band is nothing but massive and epic. Skip ahead to the 7:10 mark for the solo I'm talking about. Notice how it glides so effortlessly across the top of everything. I mean, for all intents and purposes, you have basically made a metal style song. There's just no drop D, or open A tuned guitars, or blast beat drums. lol, when I listened to it, I replaced all the instruments with metal guitars. (after listening to metal for 30+ years, it's just kind of how my brain works now!), and the feel is very similar.
Keep in mind, this is all just suggestions, and my opinions. Do with it what you will. It's pretty clear that you were going for a heavier, and epic piece. That's right up my alley, so I get excited to share my opinions, hopefully I didn't bombard you.
Here is the link. It's a band called Nile, the song is User-Maat-Re.

Great Mix of Guitar and strings. I love till 3:55 then the ending is like a dark icing on the chorus laden sad piano cake.
awesome work.

The solo guitar could sound a little more destroyed but that's only my opinion .....
I really enjoyed the listen cause the song and also the mix is very well.
Good work here!
stay tuned

the only idea is at the end of the solo part is too abrupted, I mean it's a fade out kinda thing but it should be longer for my taste...
But the song on it's whole is epic...
Handshake, Danke
