I originally wrote this piece during Freshman year of high school for a project on Oedipus Rex. It was a rather grandiose MIDI composition that I basically threw together, inspired by the tragedy contained in Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex. Ultimately, it did not make it into the final performance, but about a year later I reworked it, arranging it for a string quartet and nearly doubling the speed. What you see here is the closest I can get to an actual audible song without recording an actual string ensemble.
Edit: Here are some bonus alternate versions:
