Petite Sonata for Strings | [String Quartet]

Featured Replies

Hey everyone! I am decided to go ahead and publish my finished works on the forum. I may re-upload some existing works to match this shift, however, let this score mark the second part of this series! 

No.3 - Petite Sonata for Strings

A Petite Sonata for Strings is a small work for string quartet I composed for my own experiment. I composed the second movement first as I was bored and wanted to try writing something using my theory skills. By fortune, I found some passion and within 4-days, I composed this work. Unfortunately, I fear there may be some challenges with the execution, whether it is for double stops or fast-pizzicato playing. I admit I am not as knowledgeable of string techniques and would love to hear some feedback or suggestions to amend any trouble spots!

Feel free to leave any comments about the work and I hope to see you all in the next one!

Proper Description

  • MK_Piano changed the title to Petite Sonata for Strings | [String Quartet]

It seems to me a very beautiful work. What stands out to me is that it’s conceived more as melody with accompaniment—sometimes quite elaborate—rather than in a contrapuntal style. The second movement is gorgeous.

Thanks! I’ll be honest, there was no real plan with this one 😅

It happened out of a test of boredom and I did it for fun rather than be sophisticated with the ensemble balance. Thanks for the comments!

(The 2nd Mvt is my favorite too)
