  1. Thanks for reviewing @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu ! πŸ™‚ Just because I like them and to create unity in the opus πŸ™‚ Regards, Marc
  2. Hi πŸ™‚ Here's the third and last movement of my first complete string quartet. It's a moderato which starts quietly in the main D Major tone, before modulating in its first theme to a strong A Major viola-leaded melody. Then both main themes from the first and second movements are sequentially reexposed. Follows a happy interlude in D major. Whereafter first theme comes back and developments bring us slightly as a conclusion to the final exposure of the principal theme of this string quartet (the one from the adagio), first hinted at in the background by the viola. Thanks for listening ! πŸ™‚ Regards, Marc
  3. Hi @MJFOBOE I enjoyed your march. This instrumentation reminded me of the Music for the Funeral of Queen Mary by Purcell, though your work is of course in a happier - more glorious mood. This work might be see as not complicated, but it's surely efficient and pleasing. Best regards, Marc
  4. Hi @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Thanks for reviewing πŸ™‚ Well, I guess the bare chords in the A section are indeed intentional, they give a strong, rigorous - bare - tone to this first part, aimed at evolving towards a more flourished, lyrical part when switching to D Major for the main theme. You're right about the harmonisation errors in b.16 and b26, I missed that. Your last remark about the transition towards the end in D Major makes sense ; I had wondered a little bit about it must admit, but finally let it like it is. Best regards, Marc
  5. Hi forum πŸ™‚ Here's the second movement - adagio - of my first string quartet. It's a quite even piece, structured A B C A' D C. The A' is the first A theme replayed lower in a clear G Major tone, whereas the original A is more thought about as in a B minor b9+6 (written in a G Major key for commodity). The main theme of the first movement is hinted at on bar 28 (beginning of C theme) : That's all ; hope you'll enjoy πŸ™‚ Best regards Marc
  6. Great work @Fugax Contrapunctus, counterpoint master πŸ™‚ You set a nice drama mood here not devoid of hope as I feel it. Would be a great opening - though rather short - for a larger, epic opus. Thanks πŸ™‚
  7. Hi @Willibald I enjoyed your work. It's pleasant to hear some - nice - music in this demanding style πŸ™‚ I'm a fan of harpsichord, which you handle well here. Regards πŸ™‚ Marc
  8. Hi @Fugax Contrapunctus I loved this work ; this is both a cool technical exercise and a well written theme πŸ™‚ Thanks for sharing
  9. Hi @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu and thanks for your kind comment ! I'm really glad you enjoyed this first movement. You're right about the motivic themes ; I might have been influenced by a short menuet for string quartet that I had written just before as a training in order to learn to use Dorico which i recently acquired. Have a nice day !
  10. Hi folks, I'm back to composing after an inspiration drought of several months, that I attempted to break this week πŸ™‚ This is an allegro moderato, first movement of a string quartet that will have three of them. It's not aimed at being technical or something, just pleasant to one's ears. Regarding the structure, I wrote 2 main themes A and B, which you'll find in A B A C B A structure Regards Marc
  11. @Thatguy v2.0 great piece ! Did you end up with this girl ? πŸ˜‰
  12. @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu @Thatguy v2.0 I checked it out : it's a great piece indeed, very peaceful and inspiring πŸ™‚
  13. Hi @Thatguy v2.0 Unfortunately I dont compose for flamenco guitar, I just improvise πŸ™‚ If you're in the mood you can check my Youtube Channel here (only improvisations up there) : Marc Deflin's Youtube guitar channel Have a nice day πŸ™‚ Marc
  14. Hi @PeterthePapercomPoser πŸ™‚ You're right, this piece hasn't a structured thematic writing. It's more a flaw surging out of my head (heart ?) along writing. My favorite piece for orchestra, I'd say Beethoven's violin concerto (very thematic piece πŸ˜‰). Regarding symphonies, the first that cames to my mind is Beethoven's 2nd movement of the 7th. But I wouldn't aim to write a similar piece. Thanks for your thoughts, it's useful. Best regards πŸ™‚ Marc
