8 hours ago8 hr Hello @Tristan25 Below is my feedback of your piece.Motive(s): Throughout the piece you have recurring motive that makes the piece cohesive. And yes, there is variation of the motive to interest, overall. However, I feel that interest is lost after so many times we hear it. This creates your thematic material short melodic phrases. This is usually fine. However, there is need something else to grab our attention. Harmony: As your first piece, it is fine to stick to more diatonic harmonies. Later, you should try learn chromatic harmony! Form: I am not certain what the over form of the composition is. Overall, it is great start

My intention here was to create a state of suspension—and to demonstrate just how melancholic C major can be—despite my limited knowledge. But you are right; chromatic harmony would have been more advantageous. Thank you for your valuable tips. Edited 54 minutes ago54 min by Tristan25
