The Shape of Longing (Largo for Strings)

Here is a little work revised from several years ago. It was originally made for wind quintet but much prefer this version.

It is meant to be a reflective, wondering work with lots of feigned cadences to create that sense of longing... anticipation for what is to come.

Here is the Youtube link. Will also upload the PDF should that be clearer to follow.

I do take great care with dynamics but if anyone has any complaints or suggested improvements please let me know.
