I'm sorry it's so short, but there it is. My first composition ever ever ever...

I don't know why this piece sounds so disturbing. I'm not exactly a horribly depressed person or anything, I just like to write 20th-century music like that. Maybe it's because I was listening to Shostakovich yesterday, which was my inspiration in the first place. It took several hours for me to work out even something short like this.

It doesn't say so on the pages but the actual title is "Quartet no.1 in D minor" despite the lack of key-signature. When I started working on it I didn't know where I was going with it. I just let the music go naturally and it ended in d-, so that's how it is. This is the Introduction and there will probably be more following it. Feedback is appreciated!
