This is a set of preludes I composed and recorded for the piano, and the set tells the narrative of a maritime journey, detailing the calm sea, the time spent on the ship, the lighthouse on land, the seabirds, and finally the port. I made these pieces the bulk of my newest album, and it can be found here. Thanks, and let me know what you think.

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.

I attached the final two movements as just MP3's, as I have yet to upload them to YouTube. This is my most extended piece of music, which was completely over the period of about 6 days. It consists of nine movements for orchestra based around Dante's Inferno, a description of Hell. The score may need some revision, but the work as a whole is ~160 pages, so minor revisions are to be put off. Enjoy, and check out my YouTube channel for a more in-depth description of some of the individual pieces.- 3 replies

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!

A concert overture I just recently finished about Snowdonia National Park, Wales (Eryri in Welsh), which I recently visited. Let me know what you think!

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!
