Improvisation on 'Fly me to the moon" - Phillip21

on: January 16, 2006, 03:07:04 PM

Here is a piano improvisation on 'Fly me to the moon' in a reasonably modernist contemporary classical style. It was recorded by line from my electric piano (my acoustic one awaits the tuner) to a minidisc and thence converted to MP3 using the Freecorder program. Any comments on content or recording welcome.

i like the explosion of the really full harmonic chords when they happen. 'atmospheric' is a cool term for this music. you're a thoughtful composer.

Umm......
It really has a great different with the original melody. I think I will feel better if I have never listen to the original one.

Anyway, the 'atmospheric' chords and tunes are really amazing=]
Thanks for sharing

Poems of Ecstasy – Scriabin’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow. All of these scores (220 pieces in total) can now be found on Piano Street’s Scriabin page. Read more
