luderart Posted December 11, 2020 Posted December 11, 2020 This is my "Soliloquy for Violin No. 32". It came to me in one continuous burst of inspiration.

Markus Boyd Posted December 14, 2020 Posted December 14, 2020 You call this work a soliloquy - a soliloquy for what? It seems to me rather disorganised which is understandable based on your brief description. Also a little short... Quote

Yes, it is one of my shorter soliloquies. Quote

I’m more interested what expressions you intended to convey as, after all, you are sharing with us. That will perhaps enable us to offer more meaningful feedback on your choices. Quote

That will perhaps enable us to offer more meaningful feedback on your choices. Hi. I just composed it from the inspiration of the moment. It doesn't necessarily have to convey anything. I was just going to add the following past definition I had about my soliloquies to my previous response to you: "I call many of my pieces by the name of "Soliloquy" which to me signifies a short (aphoristic), reflective, often calm, and sometimes sad, piece written for one instrument (or sometimes a set of instruments behaving as one). These pieces often serve as a kind of character sketch of the particular instrument for which they are written, and/or to present a single musical statement/argument in a brief yet parsimoniously meaningful manner. " (My definition. March 20-21, 2013) 1 Quote
