NOTE: The midi file has NOTHING TO DO with the actual piece; it's just that the .pdf won't display without an audio file.

Another "etude." One of the most interesting features of the chorale tune is the stretch into the tritone in the very first phrase, so I decided to create a dialogue between the stark statement of the tune and a dusky, agitated variant a tritone lower. Sometimes I don't quite follow an exact transposition, but it's close. Only handwritten, no audio! :<



the file didn't upload! D:
das ist nicht genug!
Wow. This is nice. I loved this simple setting.
To play the identical lines of the hymn a tritone lower is a nice device you used. getting away from a all too tonal sound.
The last lines seem (both) to be transposed a perfect 5th up, why is that?
I am a bit less enthusiastic about the coda. The end in G sounds somewhat unfinished (when you listen with tonal ears). Although it pleads for you that you make it different than the phrase in the first line (B natural in stead of flat)

Well. Interesting etude.
And again: you have a nice script

EDIT: I think you know that this chorale occurs in the Berg Violin concerto?
The problem with this review setup is that one doesn't realize that people have even commented on his work!
Thanks for reviewing, and yeah I'm aware of Berg's use of it in his Concert. I'm glad you enjoyed it, mostly! Haha.
