August 16, 20205 yr This piece was something I put together a while ago. It isn’t to complex and like usual, I’m always welcoming to advice on how to make the harmony a bit more complicated.
August 24, 20205 yr The piece has scope. Well done putting it together. But if you want to make the harmony more interesting you need to learn to change key (modulate) even if just passing through a related key back to your tonic. Or continue in a new key. You don't mention in your profile whether you're studying harmony. If not, traditional harmony (CPP) may seem a bit of a chore at first but you'll soon get the gist of it. Useful if you have a keyboard to see the layout of chords and harmony.
August 24, 20205 yr Author Quinn, I am currently studying an AP music theory book on my own and trying to teach myself music theory and composing (I’m not in high school yet so I can’t take a class), and the book does mention basic harmony. I don’t have a keyboard (unless GarageBand sort of counts) but I’ll have to look into traditional harmony more. Thanks for the advice!
