April 24, 2025Apr 24 Hi @user011235! The use of D minor reminds me of Brahms’s Lied on death, op.121 no.1: I like the first sentence with the repeated A, it depicts the stillness of death well. The ending of A and then lower an octave and then a fifth sounds a bit difficult for the vocalist for me. For me, maybe I would use C sharp instead of C natural in b.46. Thx for sharing! Henry
April 25, 2025Apr 25 Author Hello! I've never heard that Brahms piece, I'll have to take a listen at some point You're probably right about those leaps being a bit difficult, but they should be doable with practice. I can do them and I'm far from a good singer 😅 A C# would work in m. 46 but I like the way it sounds to move from natural to sharp in the next measure. Thank you for the feedback!
