Short piece for strings - VSL Chamber Strings

[Leslie Sanford]

This is a short piece for strings I wrote using VSL's Chamber Strings. It's in binary form with the second section being longer than the first.

Really enjoyable track! Lots of energy and very Baroque in mood. You must have a very fine understanding of Baroque theory and practise.

Thanks, Paul! The Baroque period is my favorite period of music. I've been studying it for several years, trying to soak up its idioms and practises, so your comment means a lot, thanks!

Hello Leslie,

Yes, I'm rather fond of the Baroque period too.  Although I too have studied the form I don't think I've captured the essence of the period nearly as well as you have with this piece.  

If you had told the forum that this some lost Bach or Haydn composition that you discovered hidden behind the picture of dogs playing poker that you bought at a yard sale somewhere and you MIDIstrated you would have me hook line and sinker.

Nice work and congratulations!
