Diabelli Project 224 - Piece for Piano, Part 10

The Diabelli Project is about offering my weekly flash-composition sketches freely to all. Like Antonio Diabelli's theme, these sketches aren't great music. But perhaps (as in Diabelli's case) there's a Beethoven out there who can do great things with them.

I decided to try writing another complete piece in 10-minute weekly installments. It's definitely exercising a different set of creative muscles than my daily work requires.

This week's installment of the Piece for Piano begins at the second measure on the page. And it's (finally) the end of the piece. I finished out the restatement of the opening theme. I don't know where the eighth note shift in the last measure came from -- but I like it.

Next week I'll start another flash composition. Will it be another movement of this piece? I don't think so, but I haven't heard from my subconscious yet.



As always, you can use any or all of the posted Diabelli Project sketches as you wish for free. Just be sure to share the results. I'm always curious to see what direction someone else can take this material.
