December 16, 20241 yr Hello This is a very simple piece. I want to express how I think these weeks are going to be for me. Greetings.
December 17, 20241 yr Hi @Luis Hernández! Another wonderful example of yours using the tintinnabuli technique! I like how you use the M-voice always in 3rds. You start with the M-voice in the right hand and the T-voice in the left but soon enough, as the piece develops you intertwine and exchange the position of the voices. Looks like, towards the end you also double the T-voice with 6ths. And the piece is written in free meter akin to Messiaen. Thanks for sharing and Happy Holidays!
December 17, 20241 yr Simple and expressive - I really like pieces of this kind. To me, it feels sombre but not overly so, perhaps as if controlling that feeling or just waiting. I like the title too. Are you playing the piano here?
December 17, 20241 yr Author @PeterthePapercomPoser Yes, I have been delving into the tintinnabuli technique, which I find fascinating. I've written a few things on my blog about how to use it. Bilingual. There is virtually no information in Spanish on this subject.
December 17, 20241 yr Author @piajo Thank you. Yes, this technique allows me to try to express restrained emotions. It is not played live, it is a virtual piano.
December 18, 20241 yr Hey @Luis Hernández, I love how meditative the music sound. I like it. It sounds simple but very soothing. And I love the meterless meter like Medeival music as I always love Gregorian Chants to be honest. 23 hours ago, PeterthePapercomPoser said: Another wonderful example of yours using the tintinnabuli technique! I love the term Peter LoL. I like using a complicated term to describe simple music style like academics who use the term postmodern for every empty arts LoL. Thx for sharing! Henry

Virtual instruments are not the same as those actually played. But they can be worked on a bit to get the sound you want. It is also important to work on dynamics, accents, tempo changes (rubato). In this case that part is less important because in this style there are usually no changes of that kind.
December 21, 20241 yr I love the simplicity of this, but it's interesting musically too. I've relistened a few times now, and each time I caught something new. Arvo Part is someone I've revisited here and there, and you inspired me to go back once again. Thanks for sharing
December 21, 20241 yr Author @Thatguy v2.0 Yes, Pärt it's fantastic. It seems to me that this technique has many expressive possibilities. Edited December 21, 20241 yr by Luis Hernández
