Topic: Élégie de Françoise a new original work

Just wanted to share my first original composition written since I was 12 years old. It's in remembrance of French actress Françoise Dorléac. The theme that forms the foundation for it came into my head on the day of her death. Never wrote it down but it's a tune that has remained with me all these years. Never knew what to do with it until now. It's played on the 1926 Pleyel.

Hope you enjoy listening to it.

My best,
Robert

Hello again, Robert! Nice to have you back in the forum.

Very beautiful!  What a fantastic journey that was. Made many deep feelings in me (of course I’m remembering my son when listening to this kind of music). As budo said, moving performance.

”….a tune that has remained with me all these years…” Well, what a joy that you got it done.
Nice listening how it grows beautifully and the climax comes at 2,55 - 3,10! And then the peaceful ending.
Congratulations, a Masterpiece in it’s genre. I’m happy for you. Well done 

Best,

Stig

Edit   And Pleyel is a very good choice for this music.

Hello again, Stig!

You're too kind and a very thoughtful listener as well. Your most generous words are much appreciated!

I have been absent a long time. Hope to get in the habit again. I've missed you and everyone here.

Take care!
Robert
