Prelude in A Flat Minor


Recommended Posts

Sort of a Rachmaninoff-ish piece. It's much longer than anything I've written so far, and I sort of feel that the repeated A section at the end gets somewhat boring. Would like some feedback on how to expand this even more. It's usually the transitions that make it hard for me to write longer pieces. Thank you!

That's very interesting. I like the beginning with the melody in the basse (it sounds kind of creepy at times). And then nice constrast when you change the melody to the right hand with a brighter motif. 

Just a question: what's the purpuse of writing it in A-flat minor? I find it hard to follow the harmony with double-flat accidentals 😅

Well, as for A flat minor, I just liked the sound of it. (It's impossible to sight read lol)

I actually liked this piece a lot. I love the emotion in the A section, and how it was expressed through the harmonies and melody. I was somewhat confused about the choices for enharmonics, and the lack of a change of key signature at the end to go back to A-flat minor, but thats really doesn't bother me. There are some adjustments I would make in the B section, but really only minor details.

Very nice!
