Waltz No.2 in Bb Major for Piano

Featured Replies

Hi everyone!

I composed this short waltz for piano today. I'm still practicing it, so for now I've used the sounds from MuseScore 4.

It was inspired by Tchaikovsky's Album for the Young, Op. 39. The opening melodic motif is quite similar to that of No. 8, "Waltz," and I also used some harmonic progressions that I learned from No. 14, "Polka."

While studying and practicing pieces from that album, I started wanting to compose several short piano pieces and create my own "Album for the Young."
This is my first attempt. It is a waltz in B-flat major, although the tonal center shifts around quite a bit.

The form is ABA', with A being the main waltz theme and B a slower lyrical brief section in Cmaj.

As always, every feedback, comment or suggestion is more than welcome and hope you enjoy it! Thank you!
