Pianokwartetje

This piece for piano quartet is just about the first composition I've made for anything more than solo piano since I was 6. I am very aware that it's easy to find fault in the piece. Along with comments, it'd be nice if someone rated this piece, too. I'm considering adding two more movements, but thats a story for another day.

You have good ideas, but you should learn somewhere "composition". It would be useful for you. :)

good luck,

Sounds really musical. One of the things I would work on is making sure that it's not only playable, but also idiomatic. I know as a pianist that those runs are possible, but they would be really difficult to time that precisely, and some of the string writing is awkward.

Another thing to consider is phrase markings, and for the piano, pedal markings. There are none. I would go back through your piece and decide where you want phrases to end and for them to begin.

The last thing I can think of right now before I dash off to Russian is that you need to work on notation and dynamics. I think I saw one dynamic throughout the entire piece, and that was FF.

Hope this helps!

I know about the dynamics and pedal marks, I haven't just gotten around to them yet! I never said the piece was finished! Hehheh...

This is pretty cool, I like the melody on the violin starting at about 1:50 alot
