oops with the file this time. Jolly piece for piano and violin

• Nov 5, 2010 - 07:36

Hello,

This is my first go at notation software or even writing my music down at all.

I think the software is excellent, as with a little trial and error and no experience I've managed to produce pretty much what I had in mind and I'm someone who can barely work my mobile phone :-)

Hope some of you like it, thanks for listening and thanks to musescore for the software.

I've speeded it up, realized it was moving along too slowly to be jolly.

I would be interested in getting some feed back on the music but also on the notation presentation.

After the middle eight I wanted to gain momentum and end on C, where as each part ends on Fm, which sounds unresolved. At first I thought it might be nice to leave it like that but decided against it. I usually write songs and this probably will be one eventually.

It's arranged for violin and piano because my neices play those instruments and I hope it will be fun for them to play it.

Thank you for sharing your song. I really enjoyed listening to it. On that note, I did not detect any unresolved parts and I think the tempo you ended up with works well for this type of song.

One thing I might consider changing is the loudness of the violin at measures like 10 & 11. In my opinion, the violin should have the melody in the later half of those measures and I don't hear it as clearly as I would like to.

All in all, great work. I'm sure your nieces will love this song.

Regards,
Asutori

Thanks Asutori,

Since I uploaded, I listened and thought the piano and violin were sort of fighting each other a bit and that there was too much reverb, so I adjusted the reverb and have the violin louder throughout. I think it sounds a lot better now.
