Maarten Bauer Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Hello! Sometimes I just need to write and write and write... without thinking about whether people will like it or not. I decided to compose a piece based on motifs. This time, I decided to compose another neoclassical composition: String Quartet No.2 ''Cuckoo'' in G, Op. 65. The music is meant as a sort of scherzo. The main motif is the sound of a cuckoo. This string quartet consists of only one movement, which is in sonata form. Feel free to comment!

Luis Hernández Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 I love it. With that simple motif you made a delightful and quite interesting piece. Very nice canonic part there in the middle. Quote

The harmonies are a wonderful blend of classical and modern. Well written. Excellent job. Thanks a lot! I am happy that you like my blend of modern and classical styles! Quote
