Is This Violin Chord Possible?

Is This Violin Chord Possible? Free Sheet Music by Outis for Violin | Noteflight

 

Just askin'.  I have been writing music for 38 years, but I am not a string player.  If possible, could not be sustained...

Why not write with A4, F#5 and D6?

I don't know, what about my inversion?  If I had a violin, I'd try it out, very badly...🤪

The chord would have to be played by splitting and with your inversion, only A5 and D6 with be played as the final chord and leave a barer sound. With F#5 and D6 it definitely sounds fuller!

I knew that didn't look right...really, after 38 years, writing an impossible violin chord!  I can forgive myself for an unplayable guitar chord once in a while...:blush:

I am not a violinist myself, I think the chord is playable but only less effective on a violin. I think the chord would be more effective on a guitar or piano! It definitely fits my hand to play it on a piano haha!

Yes, probably weak as opposed to your suggestion, and I changed it.  Last movement of my D Minor String Quartet.
