A very short piece (I'm wondering if I could make it longer) for Violin, French Horn and Piano.

Very nice melody. The Pizzicato in the violin is definitely my favorite part. Can't really deconstruct it because I am a student and only 16 but I like the piece and I think it is very good.

In the opening, when the piano comes in with the quarter note then the four eighth notes, it sounds quite awkward. After that, the next 2 bars sounds like the beginning of a sequence that was never used to it's full extent. Perhaps continuing with two more bars before moving on it necessary to secure a better grounding. The whole piece has a very baroque feel to it (correct me if I'm wrong). Some of the bars have "incorrect" harmonic progression (such as bar 6 with the descending eighth notes in the violin and piano. Add more embellishments, a longer development before jumping into 4/4 and perhaps ever split it up into two parts (that was very common back then: think about prelude and fugues).

It is quite 'eastern' at the start. I think you used a harmonic minor at the start. I don't quite like the harmony though.

 

To extend and develop, you can do an inversion of the melody, augmentation and diminution, embellish with a few trills or turns. 

 

Hope to see an extended version of this piece! Hope it is rather more exciting to hear.
