Hello!

The third movement is done!

Plenty of crunchy diminished and augmented fifth intervals in this work to give it some darkness. I also chose to keep the register fairly low. Oh, the funeral march... for me: despair; knowing that everyone's fate is to fade into the wind and there's nothing anyone can do about it. There's nothing wrong with that; I've come to a place where I no longer fear death, but it's a reality of life that, at times, is impossible to ignore. There is a positive side, of course. For one, the contrasting section is in A flat major and picks up tempo briefly! Before inevitably falling back into F minor... Also, on a funny note, the entire main theme is based off of an old song I wrote for my high school rock band. This was when I was first learning to write music but I remember always thinking it would sound good as a funeral march. The song was called "One More Life" and the lyrics were about shedding the old, beginning anew, asking the universe for "one more life". It feels good to finally have written this movement, though. I hope you enjoy it :)
