Tell me what to play!


Daniel

Recommended Posts

I'm going to record a piano improvisation, and for fun, I want to base it on ideas provided by blog readers, tweeters, and my favourite: YCers!

I'll pick the best ideas and record the improv. Then I'll post a video of it on Youtube, with the relevant suggestions appended to the video.

Please start suggesting! As soon as I have enough, I will record it.

Suggest anything you want...... "play a section in Eb".... "sad theme in the middle"...."play like you've just had 5 cups of espresso"...."wrong notes!"... the list goes on!

Please leave your suggestions below, or find me on Twitter @danielbarkley

l would like to see you improvise something utilizing two (or three) different layers:

1. A tonal progression - your choice

2. A serial textural layer - taking the various components of a row and devising a texture out of them

3. A pentatonic melody overlayed, and supported, by the previous two layers.

GO!

Hey nice impro... looks like my idea was too radical compared to the others, or maybe you had "space" in the other and mine was too specific, because that clustersote sounds kinda out of place, your ending was landing very nice and suddenly my recommendation :laugh:

hey with this I recalled I recorded and impro once... I just posted here:
