Thank you for your reviews, Indeed, what I wanted in 48 was a pure, natural harmonic. I dont really know why I wrote it that way - maybe because of my guitar background, where there is a common practice of writing all harmonics with diamonds. I'll fix all those slur issues when I got home. I subconciously felt that the octave glissando would be very hard to play. Well, if it's virtuoso stuff - I'll change it into single note gliss. About the C part - I'll change it to F-C, although will miss the fuller sound :) I'm glad you liked it and hope it will make me finish my other tangos, which are waiting for my attention for so long.

Of course I have. I thought I already uploaded it yesterday but apparently I must've misclicked something. Nevertheless, now you should be able to download it. Thank you for your time

It's one of my oldest pieces I wrote and by far the one I spent most time working on. I named it Tango because I find that the name fits it the best - although one may argue that its not tangoish enough :)Since I am not a violinist, I tried to leave bowing and legato markings for the performer (who I wish there was). I know there are some places where I wasn't really sure how to notate things to make it fully understandable. Watch out for the midi file - it doesn't play harmonics and it sounds pretty bad.Overall, how do you find the piece? Which part are the weakest and strongest? Every opinion is important to me as I need something which would help me to go back to writing music after a very long break. :) Tango for guitar and violin

Hello, I listened to your advice and did some tweaking. That F# to A# stop shouldnt be a problem now. I'm really flattered that you find it enjoyable. I shall bless anyone who plays this piece, and double-bless anyone recording it:) The title came up at the end, the overall impression brought me on Sisyphus. Your interpretation is better than mine, since I didn't intend anything. The rock rolling down in the fast part, hero climbing in the beggining and in the end - I buy it:) syzyf.pdf

Hello, The main melody theme is taken from Szymanowski's Mythes, although I havent heard it for years. Yet it stuck in my mind and recently I couldnt help but write this one:) The score is as miniminal as possible, I leave articulation and expression to performers (which I wont ever have, so there is not a problem:P). How playable (and I guess unplayable) is it - specially the quicker part? What do you like the most ? I'm almost sure there are some enharmonic errors, I just dont like spending hours thinking if the note should be cis or des:) Any critics are welcome! syzyf.pdf syzyf.mid

Thanks for all your replies :) I'm going to rewrite the score and in addition rearrange it for trumpet and piano (I picked up the trumpet few weeks ago and it seems that I'm doing pretty well, so I'll be playing this piece by near future) and make some minor changes. Indeed, there are lots of 1-5 chords, which I, by no means like and don't want to change, as I tried putting some fuller chords and they didn't meet my expectations. I will try to avoid parrarell movements, though. The dissonance that benxiwf mentioned is in fact a little unexpectable and could be done better. The violin and piano are very simple as I wished my girlfriend, who is rather an amateur violinist, would play this with me when I've learned how to play piano. :) It wont happen so quickly anyway, I dont have one yet, but hey, its good to have some plans for future:p I did look at some masterpieces, being seriously inspired by Shostakovich's works (my favourite piano trio No.2) And my later works tend to be rather more complicated. I hope you'll find them more enjoyable and interesting. Cheers, Maciej PS - should I paste my other works (when I fell they're finished) here, or make a new thread?

Hi guys, I'm pretty new to this forum, I've found it accidently few minutes ago and I'm thrilled that such an incredible place for people like me egsists:) It's the first score I've put here, on young composers. The piece was meant to be a rather simple one, with a clean melody and high amount of melancholia. Please fell free to criticise me - I've never gone to any music school neighter had any musical training. Having some advice or someone to pick and show me my mistakes is certeinly not that bad idea:) here it is: SoundClick artist: Maciej Keler - page with MP3 music downloads Romance for violin and piano.sib Romance for violin and piano No.1.pdf
