This piece is a string quartet interpretation of one of my two part inventions for piano (VJS 045).

VJS 046 "Strings Interpretation of VJS 045" String Quartet Composition

This piece consists of five sections.  Three canon sections with two sections of free counterpoint separating them.  Each counterpoint section is actually three separate counterpoint sections separated by one non-counterpoint bar.  The middle canon is the original canon statement and response.  The third canon is the second (original) in retrograde, and the first canon is the second (original) with the 4 bar statement & response juxtaposed.

VJS 052 "Canons & Counterpoint" String Quartet Composition

VJS 062 "Perilous Pursuit" String Quartet Composition

I'm a passionate part-time composer who's trying to share his work with others.  All of the works that I have here on Soundcloud are completely original compositions that have been composed by me with no samples or AI generated content whatsoever.  The only exceptions would be the Bach reharmonizations, where the melody comes from the same source as the original, and my solo piano arrangement of the Charlie Chaplin classic "Smile".
