The Anarchist Rhapsodies No. 1-6

The following twelve pieces are transpositions of each other, but varying greatly in regards to tempo and time signature. There are some parts that are added that not all of the rhapsodies feature. But my reason for doing all twelve minor key signatures is that the key signature is as important in a piece of music as is tempo or mood. If you had a romantic piece in G major, it would not have the emotion than if the piece was in A or E major.

How is that? Equal temperment has eliminated any acoustical differences between keys. The difference lies now only in tessitura and playability/familiarity of performer. Emotion is not something that's dictated by a key. The performer must inject it, and will (hopefully) do so equally well in any key.

:huh:

And, yeah. If you expect anyone to listen to them, you'll need to provide scores and/or MIDIs.
