ComposedBySam Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 My first work using a small group of instruments. Before I had always composed for piano only. Constructive criticism is welcome! 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterthePapercomPoser Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 It's nice if a bit reminiscent of Pachelbel's Canon in D. In some places in the D major section, in the Oboe and Harpsichord part you have A#'s which would work better as Bb's since you're borrowing from the minor mode (since D minor has a flat in it). The modulation into F major is well executed! In the F major section there's the same problem as in the D major. You use C#'s where Db's would be more appropriate since you're borrowing from the F minor mode which has four flats. Thanks for sharing!

I'll keep in mind the enharmonics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwiggitySwewgity Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 Wow, I really like this! I've gotta admit, it's been a while since I've written a piece of music, mainly due to lack of inspiration. After listening to this though, I think I'll try again. This piece is magical. Keep writing! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
