You are free to express yourself in any way you wish. And your sentence is both grammatical and meaningful.– Ronald SoleCommented Apr 25, 2019 at 18:45

Juhasz It is just the dual meanings of the word 'made'. Made in my example is referring to the emotive effect of its score, as opposed to actually making it powerful 'physically' but it could be interpreted either way..– bluebell1Commented Apr 26, 2019 at 22:17

Maybe if you insert something about the angle the power comes in. Something like "more emotionally powerful" or "more evocatively powerful" or "more powerfully persuasive" or something like that.– puppetsockCommented Feb 20, 2020 at 18:00
