I started this piece about a week ago, and I wrote it just for the sake of composing something. I need to keep my skills up for when I go to college! Well, anyway, it's an a capella choral setting of the first four verses of Psalm 61. One thing I had trouble with when writing this piece was keeping it interesting until the end. I started off good, I think, but it just kept getting simpler and more monotonous toward the end. I think the short length of the piece keeps it from getting too boring, but had it gone on much longer the way it was, I think it could have got that way. I tried to musically express the meaning of the words, but I really don't know how good a job of that I did. Here, as always, are the Finale file and the MIDI. Comments and critiques are appreciated! Thanks!
