Wistfull Serenade - A Brief String Trio ....

Hi all this a brief (puff of smoke) String Trio.

I am not sure just to leave it be or incorporate in a larger work.

At the moment - I'll let it stand by itself.

All comments appreciated.

Greetings!

1) Your title says string trio, yet this a duo.

2) if you can, please add more chords in your piano part.

3) A VST violin will always generally play legato. What you wrote is not. The one bow marking you did write is implausible. Remember, phrase markings are not the bow markings.

4) I do like your melody here. With that being said, this piece is too short. This piece could go at least for another 3 minutes. There are never enough string trios or violin pieces. Keep at it!

Thank you for taking the time to listen to my work.

Well, it's beyond me why I called it a Trio. I must have had another work in mind when I posted.

As for the sparse piano accompaniment is to create a specific mood/feeling. I understand the slurs are not bowing marks .... placed there for interpretive intent only ... will it confuse the violinist?

You provided some motivation to do more with the piece ... maybe I'll work on it.

I'll see if my muse speaks to me! 🤔
