Thank you for listening and reviewing my piece! Yeah, I should really take much more care about enharmonic spelling issues. I hear it over and over again. I'm not a real musician. All I know about music theory I know from some short YouTube videos by "Music Matters". I'm glad, you liked it 🙂 K.R. Alex

Dear @Henry Ng Tsz Kiu, thank you very much for taking time to listen & review my composition! I'm glad you like it. I really wanted to try out a modulation to a rather distant key, particularly after learning some modulation-techniques as presented in the YT channel Music Matters. Of course - your comment motivates me to do it! K.R. Alex

Dear Christopher, thanks a lot for listening and commenting my piece - what a beautiful comment! Yes, this piece is really short, but I'm not going to work on it anymore, since I'm a very busy person and wanna use my spare time for new ideas and experiments. Another reason is, that I actually don't like this piece that much (composing it was tedious sometimes) and I am very glad to have finished it. K.R. Alex

Dear Peter, thank you very much for your detailed review! Yes, I guess there are several enharmonic spelling issues in my score. I'm not a musician and I compose in a piano roll in a DAW-software. When a piece is finished, then I transcribe it into a score in MuseScore. My almost sole source of knowledge about music theory are some short videos of Gareth Green from the YouTube channel "Music Matters". I'll try to learn more about enharmonic notation in future. K.R.

Short original piano composition called "Please!". It is my first composition after a break of 2 years. It is inspired by the music of composers of the romantic era. Another big inspiration was the painting "Lamia" by John Waterhouse. It has the following structure: A - B - C - A' A : Main theme in C Major B : Secondary theme in d sharp minor C : Transition from B to A' in c minor A' : Dramatic variation of A in C Major Thank you for listening! Feel free to comment 🙂

thanks! Yeah, more staccato-like contrast would have benefited this piece.

Thanks for listening. I'll keep the rhythmic aspect in mind for my next composition!

Hi! Thank you for listening! Could you please tell me, where & what the en-harmonic issues are exactly? I would really like to know that, because harmony is important to me. Also,.. because this piece was meant to be a practise of harmony. Thanks and KR Alex

Hi all! This is my new sad, dramatic classical piano composition in c minor. It is slightly inspired by composition of composers of the romantic era. The original purpose of this piece was to practise harmony, i.e. chord alterations, 7th- & 9th-chords and modulation, but it eventually ended up being a short nocturne- or prelude-like piece. It should be played with a good portion of pedal-use, especially in part A, in order to express a more "dream-like" feeling of the main "doubtful" melody. The structure of this piece is: A - A' - B1 - B2 - C - A - A' A: main theme in c minor A': a more persuasive version of A with a modulation to C Major B1: romantic part in C Major B2: romantic part in D flat Major 😄 a dramatic transition back to c minor Can this piece be called a nocturne? If not, which form would you suggest? Thank you for listening! Feel free to comment 🙂 K.R. Alex

Thanks!

Hi Alexander, thank you very much for listening and for your feedback, I'll keep that in mind!

Hi all and thanks for visiting my topic! This is my new cheerful and upbeat piano composition "Birthday Song" in C Major. At first, this song was meant to be a practise of some basic chord alternations, but it eventually ended up being a birthday present for my mother. The main melody came quickly to my mind when I was improvising on some chords in C major and I'm pretty sure that it is inspired by another famous melody. I just don't know which. If you know it, then please write it in a comment 🙂 . This piece was composed in a piano roll and it is possible that some chords aren't playable by regular hands (sorry for that ;)). The structure goes as follows: Intro - A - B - C - D - A - B A : First main melody B : Cheerful and upbeat culmination of A with a relaxed finish C : Intermediary theme to modulate from C to E flat D : Reviving theme in E flat Feel free to leave a comment 🙂 Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy!

thanks a lot for listening!

Hello & thanks for visiting! This is my latest piano waltz called "Paris". It's my second piece in my series of waltzes dedicated to famous cities. This time I tried to utilize more chromatic and dissonant elements in my composition and to vary the chord patterns more than in the previous waltz Op.4 No.1 "Vienna". It is a rather simple and short piece that has the following form: A - B - B' - C1 - C2 - A' - B - B' A: A quiet introduction theme in c minor B: Main theme in c minor B': A more dramatic and vivid variation of B C1: First intermediate theme in c minor C2: Second intermediate theme in C major that leads over to A' A': A more dramatic and vivid variation of the introduction theme A This piece was originally composed in a piano roll. Since I'm not a trained musician and it's my second attempt in writing sheet music I want to apologize for any mistakes in the score. Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy! Feel free to comment!

Cool pieces! I like the 2nd one (in C minor) the most!
