Work began on the 11th of January, 2023. Inspiration was taken during MYO week, for no reason at all.
- Had an idea for an exposition, around six bars of composition. Ties in the chords should be treated as a
separate voice to the melody.
Work was forgotten for around a month, picked up again during a music theory lesson on the 4th of February.
- Extended the theme of the exposition, by adding alberti base. Started to look at development.
Feb.5
- Continued to write development, from bar 15. Arpeggios from bar 27, were supposedly naturally coming from
the repeated A in bar 26 left hand. These arpeggios had no thinking involved when writing, just flowed out of
the brain. Should be played in a similar manner too. Had a minor version of theme in plan.
Feb.6
- Finished development.
- Decided that the dissonance in bar 8 exposition was not nice. Changed G in the bass note to F sharp.
- Began work on the recapitulation, G major in bar 59 marks the difference to the D major in bar 10.
- Added octaves in order to strengthen the sound.
Feb. 7
- Finished piece.
- Arpeggios were a nice way to end the piece, ending was abrupt, so a few chords and tremolo between the two
G notes were added.
