Nazariy Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Today I submit a recent work I premiered recently in a concert. This is a caprice with some influence from my origins in Ukraine but maybe not so obvious or exagerated but still in a simple way. It was composed in a short period of time the same day of the concert so this is primarily the reason of the simplicity and repetition. (I also attach a violin version of the score if you like it) Hope you like it!

Henry Ng Tsz Kiu Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Hi @Nazariy, I like your use of open strings for double stopping, also I like the 3 bar phrasing in some passages, particularly the main theme. Does that show some Ukrainian influence? Thx for sharing! Henry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luis Hernández Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Today I listened to it again. As I said, it is a very beautiful work and I find these pieces for a solo string instrument very difficult. I praise the writing of the double stops, but, nevertheless, I have to say that two voices are playing almost constantly, which seems to me to make the texture too homogeneous.

Nazariy Posted August 1, 2023 Author Share Posted August 1, 2023 Hey! Thanks for the comments!

Although this is true, I think that there's enough contrast with the different rythms and motives and that the piece is short so this might not be a problem.

As far as I know there are some slavic folk songs that have that kind of "odd"/odd phrasing.
