Romance for Mezzo-Soprano or Baritone "O, Lady Inna..."

Hi everyone!

I’m new here — my name is Dima Kravets, and I’m a composer and piano student.

I've been involved in music since the age of five, first as a professional pianist and later as a composer (for quite a few years now). Piano has been my lifelong focus, while composition started as a hobby—something I’ve dedicated countless hours to, creating new music from scratch.

My main inspirations come from classical, cinematic, and contemporary music, and I strive to compose in all these styles. Until now, my works have been mostly for piano and chamber ensembles, blending elements of classical, romantic, and modern music.
 

I’d love to share a short composition of mine — a romance for piano and mezzo-soprano. It’s based on a poem by the Ukrainian poet Pavlo Tychyna, and I’ve also provided a simple English translation of the lyrics.
 

I’d truly appreciate any feedback, professional advice, or even a short comment. Looking forward to hearing your thoughts — thanks for your time!

Hi @Dima Kravets,

Welcome to the forum! I think you have nice use of motives and rhythms here! I also love the mood change with the texture change. Thx for joining and sharing your work!
