~ Modulation Creation No. 1 ~

For the first exercise, I chose a recognizable Mozart melody since it's very easy to modulate as Mozart had done the same in his 16th piano concerto. The main motif in the modulation will be the first four notes. You may orchestrate them in any way you want. Mozart's modulation of these four notes was short and almost vapid--I'm sure you can come up with something much more interesting. I might start off with just a portion of the phrase and have maybe a question and answer for example followed up by the major modulation of the four notes.

Good luck!
