“Adagio in A Minor” by Tejo Madhavarapu, 12

From the composer: “‘In Adagio in A Minor,’ the rhythm keeps changing under the same time signature of 9/8, with very few common features between different bars. This piece does not maintain a standard rhythm or use lots of closely related ones, so it sounds mostly free-flowing.” The featured artwork is “Keys of Wandering Souls” (iPhone 11 Pro) by Sabrina Lu, 13. It appeared in the February 2023 issue of Stone Soup. You can also listen to Tejo’s other composition, “Vivace in F Major,” here.

“Vivace in F Major” by Tejo Madhavarapu, 12

From the composer: “‘Vivace in F major’ is one of my most special compositions. For one thing, it is my shortest. The bigger reason is that it has a time signature of 28/8, and no other piece which I know has a time signature with 28 in the numerator. This makes the piece very unusual.” You can also listen to Tejo’s other composition, “Adagio in A Minor,” here.
