Piano Trio In D Major Classical Style Allegro and Andante

This is my first composition for Piano Cello Violin. And my first day in Youngcomposers. So i will say something about myself to.

I play the piano, but love the piccolotrumpet more hehe.

It will better if you posted your score. =)

A tough nut to crack, the piano trio format. Or at least so they say.

Allegro:
It's a piece that doesn't break any grounds, but that's not a flaw. It's very enjoyable music, and reasonably constructed, but sometimes there isn't enough variety: you keep the same harmony, texture and dynamics for periods a bit too long. The themes themselves are quite good. I especially liked the theme right after 2:20. The minor theme afterwards started well but had a few weird harmonic things in the middle which I think could be fixed. I would also recommend varying things a bit more in the ending section, so it doesn't resemble the first section too much.

Andante:
I liked the opening theme of this movement better than most themes in the Allegro. The second theme you introduced was just as good, with an almost baroque feel which worked quite well. Despite the fact the Allegro very clearly followed a set structure, I felt that it worked better in this movement. But again, consider varying the opening theme when it's played the second time. Maybe change the violin's line so it makes a counterpoint with the piano: something like that.

Thanks for sharing.
