An original étude written for solo violin. Composed for a college class called 'Analytical Studies II', a Composition major class. Influenced by Debussy and meant to be an impressionistic take on finding resonance or “ringing” within the violin. I experimented with creating this canorous sound through use of parallel chordal patterns, open strings, a mix of high and low registers, and use of overtones/harmonics.
The piece is roughly 2 minutes in length, and can be improvised on as desired. The audio included is myself performing the piece for the final.
Includes part (complete with old college notes/theory), and live performance audio of the piece.
Listen to a live performance of the piece HERE.

-change of key
