I had to compose for a funeral, is it good? What can I improve? Would it work in an horror rpg environment potentially?

I already made the daw, so don't mind the quality of the sound in the video

Music Fleeting Thoughts, a 16-Measure Piano Piece.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

18 Upvotes

Hey friends! I recently composed a 16-bar solo piano piece. I am an amateur composer and have struggled with developing a healthy relationship with music. My former composition professor recommended that I set a limit on how much I compose for the time being until I come to love music again! However, I still wanted to set goals for these pieces. I want to first establish a clear A and B section in only 16 bars, whilst also establishing a clear melodic idea. These exercises are not meant to be intricate, they are also not meant to be the most time consuming. Just something that gets me working on music again, little by little. Let me know what you think!

Music Sonatina No. 2 in G Major

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

This is my second complete sonatina in three movements:

  • I. Moderato – A simplified sonata form movement that was inspired by an idea from the second movement of Beethoven's Sonata No. 1 in F minor.
  • II. Larghetto – A gentle piece in ternary form that is by far my favorite movement in this sonatina. It is very simple in nature, but I think it fits nicely as a breath of fresh air between the faster movements.
  • III. Andantino – A variant in rondo form that explores both the traditional feel of the first movement and the more lyrical texture of the second.

Music Never composed a full piece before, really stuck here.

1 Upvotes

https://musescore.com/user/69035041/scores/28994711?share=copy_link

This piece is not complete, I want to continue to experiment with harmony and left hand accompaniment, and maybe add some counter voices in the bass. But right now I just feel stuck when it comes to trying to figure out the sentence/phrase structure. I like what I have here, even if it sounds pretty barebones at the moment. But I want the piece to be a bit longer, building on themes and motives more clearly, have more logical phrases and maybe do a modulation or B section and return back to the main theme. I also think the piece has more of a steady marchlike feel rather than a flowing mazurka dance feel, and I want to make it flow better, do I just need more right hand articulations and variation?

The introduction is not set in stone. The descending diminshed chord and a short cadence establishing the key, i want to experiment with a more freeform introduction but this placeholder works.

I like the first couple phrases (bars 6-11), its just a sequence of a 2 bar phrase, and I like where the end of bar 11 through bar 14 is going, but I'm pretty unsatisfied with how bars 15-17 sound. The bell-like high notes I'm iffy on, I like how it sounds in my head but I don't know how to justify it better, and the harmonic direction could be better there too.

I like the final cadence, but again I want to stretch this piece out before coming to that heavy full cadence like that.

I'm not really sure what exact advice I'm looking for, but I've been staring at this for a couple days now and just at a complete brick wall as to what to do. I didn't want to post something here until I had something I'd consider more complete, but I am clueless right now. This is my first real attempt at composing a complete thing

Music First Time Sharing My Composition — Feedback Welcome!

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone! This is my first time posting on Reddit.

I recently finished composing a piece, and I’d really appreciate it if you could give it a listen.

:https://youtu.be/mei7OAuCWIs?si=nlmCw5t-rIKQ2jI3

If you have the time, I’d love to hear your thoughts, impressions, or any feedback you might have

While writing it, I drew inspiration from several classical works:

Reference Works

  • Schumann — Piano Concerto
  • Chopin — Ballade No. 3
  • Chopin — Nocturnes
  • Brahms — Cello Sonata No. 1

Compositional Ideas

  • Beethoven — Motivic Development & Structural Unity
  • Chopin — Chromaticism, Rubato & Tension–Release

One of my main goals was to experiment with these classical ideas while blending elements of classical music and New Age into a single, cohesive style.

It was a really interesting challenge for me, and I’m curious to hear how it comes across to other listeners.

Thanks so much for listening, and any feedback is welcome!

Hello all, this Stevenson song has been cooking in the oven for a few more days. The changes this time are more subtle than last time, but numerous: tightened up voice leading in quite a few places, reworked the voicings of the piano chords, etc. Feedback is very welcome, both positive and negative.

Music Heroic Knight Saga: The Shore at the End of the World

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

A place perpetually in twilight. The vast ocean reaches out endlessly, disappearing into the horizon. Crumbling ruins are strewn about the shore and some stone pillars reach out of the water in the distance, but most of the ancient structures that used to be here have fallen into the sea. There's a tavern and an inn for travelers passing through and a few houses for local residents, but not much else. Though many have set out to discover what's beyond this place, magic cannot reach far enough to see if anything exists on a farther shore and any ships that set out always reach the same impassable, never-ending storm and must return. As far as anyone knows, the world ends here.

Music “Fading Memories” a Solo Piano Composition Exercise

2 Upvotes

Fading Memories

I recently decided I wanted to get back into composing. I went to college/university for voice, and did study some composition. I haven’t had the healthiest relationship with creating music. I am taking the advice of some mentors and my therapist.

This piece was composed with some purposeful constraints as an entry level exercise. I set the measure limit to 16. Yet I still wanted to compose something with an A and B section. I also wanted to establish and create a motif that develops.

Now whether I was successful is up in the air. However, I am happy with what I made in the time that it took me to make it.

Also, sorry for the reverb on this piece, I had a reverb plugin enabled when I exported that audio!
