Music Ballad of the Awoken - (An original piece for classical guitar)

Here is a short piece which I composed for classical guitar. I wrote this a couple of months ago, and recruited my gf to record it for me. This is the final "product", as they say.

Please enjoy.

Feedback is welcome, however, this piece is complete and in the past now and I've moved on to other things. That being said, if you want to provide feedback keep that in mind.

If you have recommendations of things I should keep in mind for my next piece that would be ideal. I won't be providing a score to this piece as it's proprietary for now.

For more details, this piece is written around a Cmajor#4 chord and I was not necessarily thinking in terms of functional harmony during the compositional process. I instead was using my intuition about what harmonic colors I enjoy and what I felt was motivically correct, as well as what felt harmonically relevant. Basically I was thinking: "any note can be followed by any note, any interval can be followed by any interval, and any chord/harmony can be followed by any chord/harmony".

Enjoy.

Music Do You Like My Latest Piano Piece?

If no why, if yes why… I am a beginner composer.

This is the first piano piece where i tried to not put random ideas/motifs into a score (see some of my previous works), but instead to structure everything like a story, to use music theory and to shape the music in interesting ways… I hope I composed something decent!

I wrote a tarantella, and I wrote this melody. I feel like I wrote it, but it also feels like I've heard it, or it's too good to be something written by me. If anyone knows if this exists already, please let me know (I had to make video of melody because this subreddit doesn't allow images).

Hello! So I have this short sketch of a music I'm planning to write. But I need some helps and suggestions, because I want to make this slightly special. You see, my math teacher is retiring soon, and she's the best math teacher at school and literally helped me get top one in math in my grade. I want this music to be played at the ceremony at the school. Please help me. I have a 4-minute track that is just basically this sketch but an ostinato (basically changing keys up a semitone, and octave, and on the middle of those changes are a bar or two of modulation).

I'd be really thankfully and appreciate any assistance given!

When I one day must depart,

then do not depart from me!

When I am most terrified

within my heart,

then snatch me from my fears

by the power of your anguish and pain!

Excerpt from "PIERRE", Music for electric guitar & keyboards in DIM. Inspired by the Apostle Peter
