My first piece in 3/8


Recommended Posts

It's been quite some time since I have last posted, have been really busy transitioning from one life stage to the next, so yea, here goes a new piece, " A Spring Calling " of my " The Seasons " Collection - my first piece in 3/8, and I hope it is not too repetitive - just a total of only four minutes plus tht alr include a couple of themes, variations and transitions all squeezed in.

( That said, the single themes and motifs themselves are repetitive ( even wht repetition), but I make sure they repeat much, much lesser than my previous pieces to compensate. )

Any comments appreciated!

Hello @Aw Ke Shen!

This piece held my interest much more consistently and really took the idea of repetition with variation to heart.  I'm glad you're taking this avenue in your development and I'm enjoying it very much!  I think there is still a spot where you sequence a certain figuration by walking up the scale step by step - for me that was still a bit predictable.  But there are styles of music where more repetition or sequencing is expected such as minimalism.  And there's ways of making that work if you want to explore that.  Btw - I loved the canonic imitation between the right and left hands - a great example of repetition that enriches the listening experience because of a shift in the metric placement of the material.  Thanks for sharing!

I appreciate that this piece is very careful when it comes to dynamics and accents, which is how I think it should be even if we use virtual instruments.
There are interesting harmonic changes (bar 50).
Also well sequenced chord density changes.
