From New York to Pachelbel

Recommended Posts

This summer I went to New York and in my room there was a piano, so I started teaching the Canon to my trip-mate Giulia and the last day we played a very great duo. This song is dedicated to her and of course it contains the magical chord progression of the Pachelbel's Canon, I also used the bassline as counterpoint for certain parts and I experimented with the key changes to the relative major and minor. I hope u'll like it, pls give me some advise so I can improve.

Would be nice to get a score, I think my feedback improves when I read & listen and It's always nice to do that. You clearly seem to know what you're doing. I am enjoying the piece and cannot find a point where there would be clear room for improvement. It is balanced, soft, listening to it is effortless...Perhaps the ending could have been lengthened up a bit? Perhaps not. The violin sounds a bit low but perhaps that's intentional or it was just that I had the volume low.

The only not really useful advice I can give in these cases is: k e e p  c o m p o s i n g  m a t e

Thank you for sharing this :).

Kind regards,
Daniel–Ømicrón.

It's a nice, relaxing atmosphere.  The piano sounds ultra-realistic, at the forefront and with plenty of reverb while the violin is really midi-ish, in the background and in a dry space without any reverb it seems, which creates a weird mismatch between these two instruments imo.  I like how you include the Pachelbel's Canon chord progression in here which I've recently learned is called a leaping variant of the "Romanesca" schemata of the various galant schematas used in the classical period.  Thanks for sharing!
