Composing E: The Final Product
What a journey this has been! I do hope you’ve enjoyed it.
Well, our piece of music Sonata for Chamber Orchestra is complete. Probably. Like most things in life, there’s always room for a little change here and there but at the moment, I don’t forsee any such needs. OH! Tweetable 🙂

What we create is rarely fully complete – there’s always room for little changes! @Stephen_P_BrownÂ
I wrote the introduction and added a fun little coda (remember Dudley Moore’s numerous types of Endings?), and just tweaked a couple of passages here and there.
So, we have a result. Five and a half minutes of music that took over a month and four blog posts to create (see below). If you’d like to hear the piece live, it will be played by the Patel Conservatory Composers Orchestra on Monday, December 10 at 7pm in Tampa’s TECO Theatre (hope to see you there!)
But until then, this video will have to do.
(I love technology: you get to follow along the score as it plays)
(Even if you don’t read music!)
