DELETED #2


Recommended Posts

Nocturne 1: the score wouldn't load, but I liked what I heard. The motifs were cohesive and pleasant to listen to, though it did sound more like a waltz than a nocturne.

Nocturne 2: too random-sounding for me. There was an overall lack of cohesiveness to me, both in harmony and rhythm—maybe you were going for that. It was too much for my traditionalist ears.

Nocturne 3: very classical and elegant. Some of the chords seemed a little 'iffy,' though, as if the left hand were playing in one key and the right in another. I also feel like the piece should have ended in E major. There is an Adim7 chord, followed by a D# (part of the B7 family) which resolves to an E chord. Then the surprising A major chord. Maybe change that E chord to an E7 chord and then resolve to an A? Something along those lines should do the trick.

Or just leave it lol. It's your piece, after all! 🙂

Thanks for the feedback!! The nocturne afterall is a freeier form that expresses the night, there's no form or structure defined. I mostly I make it by improvising, some of the easier accompaiment for improvising are waltz like, that's how it came with.

 

For the second, as I explained, it's where I used more modern harmony and a more free non traditionalist piece, so yeah you got it.

 

The third I agree,  with that, maybe I would do such and change it.
