A simple choral piece which I was commissioned to write for my school's choral teacher,by whom it was then performed. Unfortunately, I don't have the actual recording, so this is the computerized version. Let me know your thoughts!

This is a set of three pieces, though composed individually, that I put together as a single opus number, each reflecting an attempt to compose within a specific style. The first is a "sonata" akin to the single movement works of Domenico Scarlatti. It originally started as a possible movement for my harpsichord concerto which I later just used as a stand alone solo keyboard piece. It is playable for harpsichord or piano. The second is a movement in classical sonata form that was originally an assignment for a music theory class. It's probably the most "pedantic" of the group being in very tight sonata form. The last is a romantic style prelude. It is a piano transcription of the cadenza to the ending of Fantasy for violin and orchestra that I wrote about 5 years ago.

Hi all. Here is the 4th movement of my recently finished sonata in E. It is generally in the style of Beethoven/Mozart. I am quite pleased with how it has progressed. I would value any feedback. I am blessed to be able to share it. The sheet music was written with MuseScore, which is a neat little program. If you wish to listen, simply go follow the link and hit play. Cheers. https://musescore.com/user/9350326/scores/2120656 Because it is being played off the score, it will lack a little of the human touch, but it will give a pretty good idea of the overall sound of the movement. :)

A brief piece for cello and piano I quickly wrote. It is among the first of the pieces that I've written in such a style, so I'm always looking to improve. Let me know your thoughts, and thanks!

Hey everyone! I'm new to this forum. I just discovered a new composing forum, and they're currently hosting a classical composition contest. At this point, the forum is very new and there's only a few members, so they could use some publicity. It's not going to be extremely competitive, and there are 100$ prizes which are nice. Here's the link if you want to check it out: http://composers.boards.net/thread/2/site-launch-100-composition-contest Check it out!

I have been playing piano for about 6 years now, and have just recently (the past month or so) started composing my own piano pieces. I mostly play contemporary music and improv, but I have taken an interest in classical music, more specifically, bagatelles, preludes, etudes, and sonatas for the piano. My question is this: What gives a piece that "classical sound". When I compose a piece, and listen to it, it sounds very contemporary and modern. How can I achieve a more classical era style? Are there specific rules or guidelines that these composers follow? Thanks.

Hey everyone, I just wrote a book called, Cello Chords, which is a guide to harmony on the cello. It covers 11 different types of chords in all 12 keys and is an excellent resource for exploring all different types of music on the cello. You can check it out and purchase it here: www.bryanwilsoncello.com/cello-chords. Thanks guys!
