Intermezzo | Expressionist Chromatic Counterpoint

Featured Replies

Hello dear people,

I wanted to share with you my Intermezzo which is part of a Liederzyklus on poems by Hermann Hesse. The compositional techniqueย stems from fugal compositional ideas combined with the chromatic style of the late romantic to expressionist era. The sheet music is visual in the video. Thanks for your engagement and a happy new year!

Very beautiful.

The changes of textures (thicker, lighter) make good but soft contrast.

Two voice counterpoint is weak, especially after the fff. Sounds uncharacteristically basic in comparison to the other harmonies in play.
