I'd like some feedback on this. It's only my third composition and my knowledge of theory does not go beyond partwriting, so I'm not horribly confident. I know some of the keys and accidentals are not exactly string friendly, but as a violinist I didn't deem this to be much of a problem. The movement is loosely in sonata-allegro form and is influenced by Beethoven. String Quartet April 2008 MIDI 2.mid String Quartet April 2008 Version B.sib

Cesar Franck's Symphony and Beethoven's Eroica were the two pieces that most roped me into classical music. The Franck was the first "real" piece of large scale I played and the Beethoven, well, started my Beethoven obsession.

Beethoven, Sibelius, Glazunov, Khachaturian. I also like the Barber and frankly am a little sick of the Mendelssohn and the Bruch.

I have enourmous respect for Haydn, Mozart, and Bach, but I'd have to say that Beethoven was the greatest. I'd also say that Stravinsky is very high up there because he is one of few composers to write music of extremely high quality in a vast variety of styles.
