An evening

on: February 24, 2011, 10:55:19 PM

Hi people,

I was studying math earlier this evening, for a test tomorrow.
I needed some music badly, so here's the result: an improvisation.

Cheers,

Sam

Hi Sam,

That's a very nice improvisation you have there. I think its style had a slight Mendelssonian flavor to it. Very clever indeed.

Good luck on your math test!

What the? Sam, thanks for posting this! I would *love* to be able to improvise like this, with my own flavor, of course

. I want to understand harmony like that.

Thanks guys

.
I thought the contrast in dynamics was a bit too high (the harsh forte).
But for the rest I'm pretty happy with it.

It actually reminds me of a gospel Robert Franz. The dynamics are full of character, I think. And my, a compositional sense. It all makes perfect sense.

And then the ornaments at the end, an eloquent surprise!
