This is a sample of some truly wonderful and mature pieces from past Music Composition classes. I love the varied styles and am constantly surprised by the quality and dedication of these musicians. Each of these pieces evolve with repeated listening.

composed it using step entry, the piece has a beautiful flow and acoustic feel
Trio ||
String Duet
Andy Murphy '97 originally wrote these beautiful pieces for acoustic
instruments, but you can listen to these midi versions. For the true authentic
experience though, download the files, open them with your favorite notation
porgam, get a few friends together and play them live. Let us know how
you do.
Springtime Trio Cara Roesch's was also originally intended to be played by acoustic
instruments but the midi version shows off her fine sense of melody. Arranged
for bassoon, clarinet and strings.
Revival Alex Sundguist '95 wrote this beautiful piano piece, Revival
This may be the first actual musical piece ever e-mailed in as high school
homework. He composed it on a DOS machine, encoded it with UULite; we decoded
it and played it back from a Mac. You should be able to use any midi sequencer
you have.

began from an idea by Shea.
