Piano Trio in C minor, first movement (draft)

 Dear all, and with my glacial pace... here's my next attempt at butchering chamber music! a trio for piano, violin and cello.

This is not the final/polished version, but all (most) of the elements that I think should be in the finished product are here. So... if there was any feedback on what to change, suggestions to make things more effective or better sounding or less terrible--all very very very welcome as usual. This forum has been really instrumental for my beloved hobby. I think this is my 9th composition and i would have given up WAY earlier without this. In fact, if life weren't so obtusely busy and complicated I would love to take some lessons instead of remaining the perpetual amateur 🙂 And also I would love to be more active in here...

Anyways, thanks very much for those who listen and a big hello to everyone!

You're welcome, and I must say that I enjoyed every minute of listening to your work.

Thank you so much much @murphybridget!

Here's to hoping to improve this movement and to be inspired for continuation! Currently I'm thinking a fast scherzo (maybe g major) as a second movement, since the first movement is allegro but mostly eights so (I think) feels kinda pulled back. Then a lyrical adagio (a minor or e minor) as third movement and then a final rondò (c major but with important c minor episodes).

But as soon as I have a little time I want to work on this first movement... any feedback on what's most urgent of course super appreciated!

You're most welcome, although it seems that you know more technically than I am, therefore all I can offer is my moral support. However, don't hesitate to trust your instincts and let your creativity guide you as you continue to flesh out your musical ideas. Happy composing, and I'm excited to hear how your piece progresses!
