Song Without Words

have you considered putting in a "middle section" in anotehr key? Maybe modulate into the relative major? Or a neighbouring key? It's rather unrelentingly in the same key all the way through. Even for such a short piece it gets a bit tiring with the insistance on E minor.

By the way, do be careful with your enharmonic spellings of notes (says the person who posted a symphonic work FULL of enharmonic errors :pinch: ).

Have you missed how the theme goes to E major and then A minor ?

Its a short piece and I cant just spend half of the music hanging over different keys.

Forget the french...

Have you liked the melody?

This is a pretty nice piece but hearing the same thing going on in the left gets extremely tiring to hear, maybe put some variants on the melody and bass part :happy:

Forget the french...

excuse me?

:happy: By french I meant the musical terminology we used. Its a slang

actually, there wasn't a single word of French anywhere in this thread.

besides, generally, musical terminology is in Italian.

musical terminology is not, by definition, a "slang".

Ve misier.....

well, that certainly ain't French.

doesn't seem to be musical terminology either.

I guess that means the discussion is over.

besides, generally, musical terminology is in Italian.

Sometimes, if you're lucky (or unlucky) enough you can stumble across French or German terms (I think I have seen Russian as well :D - and surely Japanese) . Then you have to guess, or look it up! Or learn a new language! :toothygrin:

But on another note, I thought the song was extremely good. Oh my word. My mouth was hanging open. It is a really cool melody. It sounds so...happy.

But I must say that my left hand would be too lazy to keep up that pace throughout the entire song. My left hand does not like jumping up and down so much.

But very good, regardless of my lazy left hand which is neither here nor there.

Glad you liked the music.

The piece is very enjoyable to play, at least for me and I dont find the left hand to be any problem. First learn it at a slower tempi and then progress as you get better.

Cheers,
