millert1409 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 For this piece I mainly focused on utilizing quartal/quintal harmony, as well as modality and some elements of minimalism. Unfortunately, all I have right now is the MIDI sound file played by MuseScore- hopefully I can get a live recording eventually. Let me know what you think!

Ken320 Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Yes, I like the tonality. I am working on something similar for marimba. Similar in meter, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monarcheon Posted June 1, 2017 Share Posted June 1, 2017 Very nice. It has enough variation to keep it from being totally minimalist, but definitely has bits and pieces of it here and there. I would, instead of two dotted eighths in the 6/8 measures, use a duplet instead. It's just more standard. It may just be the recording, but the piano comes in a bit strong. Starting off with one hand at a time might result in a longer, more drawn out minimalist buildup, if that's what you're after. Again, good work.

stewboy Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Just wanted to chime in and say that the marimba part is interesting for the player and very doable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
