String Concerto No.16 Composed by Tom Dahlenburg

This composition uses only the string/woodwind sections and is motivated by a very simple melody using only 2 chords.

This piece is in G Major

As far as the simplicity of the piece, you clearly demonstrate how even simple harmony and melody can be used to create very fun music with great character. My favorite part was at 0:35.  There are hidden gems in simplicity that you can use and expand on in larger works.

If there's anything that this piece proves is that there's so much more to music than harmony and melody. We have style, character, color, rhythm, the element of surprise (your ending) and much more going on.

Let's see if anyone else here picks up on what you did with your ending lol.

Hi @Tom Dahlenburg,

I enjoy the simplicity in it. You pair it with adequate colour change and instrumental interplays. Maybe for the opening phrase you can fill up the gap after that big chord.

It's completely unrelated to the main sections for me though with that quotation.

Thx for sharing.
