A 'modernish' work for Guitar, clarinet, flugelhorn, violin, cello and double bass. In the eventual version the guitar will be electric. The last 5 or 6 seconds on the audio are silence in case I had to load it to soundcloud. I hope to write a small suite of pieces for this or similar ensemble, this being the first. If I gave it a title it would be "Into Spring, then" or similar. Any comment good or bad would be most appreciated and many thanks if you give it a listen. All the best....

As you may have guessed from the title. I've been doing little exercises with different melodic ideas and the likes. I wrote out this little piece to convey Lusciousness.

Your second statement is somewhat shocking to me, but it fully explains why you believe the first statement is true. I only ever listen to a symphony in its entirety, and I enjoy that kind of long-form music. And that's also why I write long-form music - I'm not just copying older forms for the hell of it; I'm writing the kind of piece I would want to sit down and listen to. Of course, I'm not an "aspring composer"; I'm just a hobbyist, a dilettante.

This is very good, I like it. But it is a bit too short. You should definitely expand it (An ABA format could be suitable).

Very fun music! A lyrical middle section would be cool, but I would continue to develop what you have and flesh out this main material. Looking forward to the updates, keep writing 😄

More up to date version with some added violin.
