Childhood Home

Recommended Posts

This is a piece I wrote a little while ago and forgot to post. It makes me think of my childhood home; hence the name. I know that the harmonies aren’t too advanced, and I gladly welcome advice or suggestions as to how to complicate it a little more!

Yes, @Luis Hernández is absolutely right, the main problem with the piece, in my opinion, is that you don't use your options of more complex harmony and polyrhythm.

In other words- you don't use the fact you have a piano there. Look at other oboe concertos and pay attention to the changes in dynamics and textures, to the contrast between the instruments, to the more complex harmonies etc...

Here:

The piano is just background harmony, but wow does it give the oboe more power, and that's a pretty colorful harmony.

btw i just listened and found out that's a whole orchestra, but have in mind- this could have been a piano as well.
