I wanted to start composing in the "classical" or "romantic" style for piano. This is the first movement of a sonata fantasia, its a sonata because it has three movements, but a fantasia because it doesnt have the exact structure of a sonata.

I was working on one of my ethno 2 demos and needed a break so I made an improvisation on a series of major 7ths using only the Ethno 2 package.
All of the pitched instruments use the included Werckmeister temperament tuning.

improvisation on my Casio CZ-101 in 20th century classical style.
There was no theoretical basis or anything with this.
It's all just rock n roll to me ;-)

Dead to the World
Just a shade
A specter, a ghost
No place amongst the society of perfect being!
Dead to the World

Wow, this is quite dark. Very nice!
Nice chords! I would recommend to change a tempo. Play it faster!
Lovely playing style... and it is always exciting to find classical composers! (I am up in the Bay Area)
Whow, this Sonata in Bb is great in its romantic passion! Thank you! Why don't you bring this in in www.composition-contest.com Gerd Prengel
What a master at the piano!
You are very clever Lalo, very well played.

Beautiful!!
I enjoyed all 5 very much. I'm looking forward to what you do next.
I like this one especially, your timing and control is excellent.
Lovely, sounds just like water.
Is it classical or jazz? Love music like this that blurs those genre lines.
These are great. You must have studied early 20th century composers, but I also hear jazz and blues elements
