Hi everyone,
I composed this two-voice guzheng minuet yesterday. The wild rosepink flowers are blossoming all over the hills of west Nashville (photos below). It always amazes me how many wild flowers blossom almost all year long in middle Tennessee. That explains why I have allergy all year long. The rosepink is native to central and eastern North America. They are usually pink with occasionally white blossoms.
A minuet is a social dance of French origin for two people, usually in 3/4 time. The English word was adapted from the Italian minuetto and the French menuet.
The term also describes the musical form that accompanies the dance, which subsequently developed more fully, often with a longer musical form called the minuet and trio, and was much used as a movement in the early classical symphony.
Hope this piece brings you a moment of joy!
