Featured Replies

Hi, I'm Arnau. The first thing i want to say is excuse for my english because i'm spanish and i don't speak it very well. So i'll start:

I'm composing a piano piece (i haven't finished it yet) and i'd want to give some titles for my composition. I don't know much what is for example a serenade, or a impromtu... so please put your ideas in this post and your opinions of my composition, too.

thanks

This is the song:

BONUS.MID

My composition, is a easy and simple piece. I think it's romanthic style. At the moment, i'm developing the reexposition of the first theme and it's much better than the beggining. I haven't wanted to put it here because i prefer to finish all the theme. In some days, in some weeks or maybe, in some months i'll put all the composition. And it's all. I'm waiting for you opinions and some good titles.

Well the first thing is that this is a very nice piece! But it isn't really romantic style. In romantic there are a lot of rhythm changes, riterdandos and accelerandos (in piano music at least). But it is sort of a free-stpirited (romantic). I really have no idea of a real title, except maybe an etude, but deffinetly not a serenade.

Could you tell us something about it? What inspired it? Is it devoted to someone? You can allways put in "Fur Elise"....... lol

Hi Wolf! I'm very very happy to read your post. it was my first post here and just in one hour i've received one "reply"! Ok so, i'll give some more details about my composition.

I've done it this summer. I'm a little sad because I've spent too much time on this composition and i haven't finished it yet.

The first theme is the desenvolupation of the brief introduction 3/4. One of the keys of this piece is de resolution VI to V. It remember me spanish-sonority. So i tried to develop this brief introduction. Following the left accompainment i did a melody more rythmic than melodic. I did the culminating point and then, in the left hand, a reminder of the theme. After this, there's the reexposition and a second ending that take you in a new theme. I like a lot the second theme because is a bit more fast and the particularity of it is that the melody is all done over A (and a bar of g). Then i change the mood to misterious progression of quints and then it goes another time to the previous A theme.( In the sibelius recording i think the transition of the first to the second theme it's too precipitated but if you performe it for yourselve it becomes a bit more beautiful.)

Finally to say is that I will put early the second part of the composition and i expect that you will like it.

Hi everybody. I've decided to post the second part of my composition. It's the desenvolupation of the composition1 first theme. I've changed the right hand to a spirited and strong melody. At the ending of the composition i've put a "coda" wich is a bit faster. The recording's been done with sibelius as midi file so it isn't much good...

I'm waiting for the titles!

I'll early put my first etude. I think it's very good but i will try to put it in the post when i finish it.

Bye

Wow cool I really liked this piece some very complex rhythms going on there but it all combines excellantly, I wouldnt be surprised to see this sort of thing coming up on my grade 8 piano exam as it sounds very fast and flowing. However if you're confident that this is fully playable then this is a great results well done

Oh thank you for your comments! ProgRhys. For your information it's playable 100%. :P It's difficult with the octaves in the right hand but I play it in the piano.

I'll put early the scores if there's any who wanted to try them.

I'd say the style for this is more contemporary. I hear a lot of chord changes here that are popular in Minimalism (although they come much more quickly here). It is a nice sounding piece though, and definitely gives th epianist a bit of an exercise.

You might consider making this an Etude or a Fantasy. Those seem the most likely to me.

Hi Matusaleo! Thank you for your titles. I like "fantasy" as a title, but an etude wouldn't be bad. What do you think if I put just "prelude"?

Ok, to Matusleo and the other people. Here I've put a extended version of my "composition1". Its lenght is about 2'37'' The new part is in minute 1'30'' to 2'30''

Enjoy it, and coment it too.
