"A rather abstract dance form, but as others have said it does have a dance feel to it. What I imagined is animals flitting about the forest, or perhaps flying creatures (birds, butterflies, fairies, take your pick). A very imaginative piece for this…"

"Hi Cristophe.
It has a little of a feeling of dance. What might be helpful is too have an ostinato of some sorts that is moving throughout the piece and in-between parts. This allows for motion even at slower tempos and a big part of dances even…"
"Hi Valerio and thank you for having taken the time to give me your opinion.
A little more contrast in dynamics is defenitly in order, but i don't want to change the tonality not one bit. It's a short piece and a single tonality helps the…"
"Hello Christophe
It's a nice piece, with several interesting and diverse ideas - and this diversity makes very little dance-like in my perception: indeed it is "lively", as I guess you see a dance in it, but this liveliness is…"
"Hi, Christophe,
Yes, I liked it and, yes, it does dance in a way. In fact what I particularly liked was the way the "beat" came and went. Sometimes it was lost through longer sustained notes/chords but returned again, almost as if the…"

"Dear Ingo,
thank you for the kind words.

"I enjoyed this Christophe, it is 'modern' but not abrasive and has some well thought out writing for strings in particular. Good work!"

"Hi Michael and thank you for listening.
I'm actually working on the theme of the willow tree, so you were right on the money.
have a great day!"
"I like the idea of a shorter work for string quartet. Many people tire of this sound after one or two movements, and it can be tedious to listen to a four-movement work all the way through. Still the combo has a sound all its own. So why not write…"
"Hi Valerio
It's a one movement piece indeed.
I use Finale with Vienna Symphonic Librabries solo string.
I didn't use legato but maybe i should have.
Thanks for your lsitening and your kind words.
Christophe"
"Hi Cristophe
I really liked your quartet. It's very long-breathed and full of meditative themes. Is it a one-movement string quartet?
A technical question: what software are you using? I might be wrong, but to my ears it sounds like Sibelius.…"
"dear Ali, thank you for listening and your clear advices

"Hi,
Clean cut, with a clear mood.
Beautiful.
After the first listening:
I could not perceive the structure clearly but it
looked like A B C B A. C is the fast part.
It would be better may be if C could be longer.
C may be thought as a small…"
