September 28, 20205 yr Hi everyone! This is a more recent Gavotte that I composed in just the past week. It's for a string orchestra. Let me know what you think! I have a much longer and more challenging Gavotte in C in my archives that I composed years ago but that one is not finished yet. This one is a bit more modest in form and virtuosity. Any constructive feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks - I don't know if I can imagine one of these dances in a larger ensemble than this. Maybe only by adding period instruments like the harpsichord which I don't want to do LoL.
June 21, 20232 yr Hi Peter, I am digging your older works here since I feel tired keep reviewing new works here LOL!!! I love the energy in this piece which fits well to a Gavotte. I think your music always has great energy in it, maybe they reflect your personality as well? I love your irregular phrasing here, and your usage of A natural/B double flat creates great effect here. This one is for sure "a bit more modest in form and virtuosity", but it achieves great effect and who cares about the form and virtuosity lol. Thanks for sharing! Henry
June 21, 20232 yr I really like that it sounds very direct but at the same time very rich because of the oblique and contrary counterpoint.
