Lina kim Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 (edited) I composed the theme of Ophelia's painting, a masterpiece of John Everett Millais. Ophelia is one of the characters in Shakespeare's play 'Hamlet', who was caught up in the tragic situations of the work and became mad, drowned while making a flower crown by the stream. Ophelia in the painting looks so beautiful at first glance, but the sadness and tragic situation of Ophelia impressed me! So I combined the beauty of the painting with the tragic situations of Ophelia and expressed it in this piece!

Theodore Servin Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 That's a pretty cool piece! Very romantic, and it sounds very professionally orchestrated, also the harmonies and melodies are very creative. I'm reminded of some British late-romantic chamber pieces, like the "Phantasy"-pieces by Frank Bridge for example. I don't know why this piece hasn't gotten more comments. I enjoyed it, and it's always nice to encounter a new beautiful piano quartet. Thanks for posting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJFOBOE Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 What a well crafted and enjoyable work this is ... the engraving is beautiful to behold. The music tells the story well and is balanced. It easily carries the listener along for the journey. The harmonic changes are seamless and the rhythmic variations in good proportion. I really enjoyed following along with the score ... it is so well written. Well Done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giacomo925 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Beautifully written and it tells the story so nicely and precisely without ever being shallow or merely descriptive. I particularly enjoyed the harmony instability in the flowers section, and the theme is memorable and powerful. Thank you! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guillem82 Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 That's a captivating and dramatic piece. I feel a state restless agitation is present all through the movement. Thanks for posting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
