    Thought I would share a draft of my final project for a composition course, covering the common practice period and ending with the Impressionist and Expressionist movements. I make use of chord extensions, non-traditional cadences, and modalities such as Dorian and Lydian as well as moments of E Major and E Augmented. Ballade-like accompaniment prevails, and 2:3 or 4:3 polyrhythms are often present. The form consists of a 4-bar introduction, a repeated A section, a repeated contrasting B section, and then a final nod to the intro and the first phrase of the A section. I'm not sure what that form is called. The music came to me before the conceptual title I have attached to it. In retrospect I noticed how the harmony seemed to constantly alternate between dark and bright, which reminded me of clouds passing over the sun. The piece has a quiet, moody opening and closing and lighter, even magical moments in the middle. Any constructive criticism is welcome! Thanks, Gwendolyn

    Hi, I've never composed before but I decided to give it a try this afternoon. This piece is odd I admit, but I love bizarre 20th century music. It was written based on the town I grew up in. I assigned a specific note to each letter of the town/province I grew up in by random selection and then used it as a continuous motif throughout the entire piece in the soprano line. I then based the rest of the composition on specific elements of my town ie. old French folk songs, the train, the prairie winds, change of seasons, nature, and the emptiness of prairie winters. I hope you enjoy it! *Thank you for your comment. I've temporarily taken down the midi file and will re-upload a file that is more accommodating.
