Anna's Song

on: December 07, 2020, 04:12:21 PM

Essentially she played the first part, A, and I added two other sections, B and C, plus a transition in the middle starting with a chromatic submediant and modulating to F major. Finally I repeat the first three sections in the new key, in reverse: C, B and A.
Here's the final result:

A well crafted, enjoyable piece! I like how the different parts fit together, and that you go on a little adventure into other keys in the middle.

I hope you have played it for your cousin yet?
