invention

Before the five Equal­iz­ing pieces, I made an inven­tion in d minor to begin exper­i­ment­ing with coun­ter­point:

Inven­tion in d minor

This was the first thing I record­ed on the lit­tle per­son­al record­ing device.  It’s a bit of a mess, but post­ing it any­way, as it has some ideas that might be worth return­ing to when I’ve improved.  It’s record­ed in two pass­es, since I can’t yet artic­u­late all four voic­es in real­time (and this leads to some tim­ing prob­lems).  I used the harp­si­chord set­ting, both because it seemed appro­pri­ate and because in the begin­ning I felt unable to con­trol the piano dynam­ics well enough.
