[VID] my new composition - Prelude in "E minor"
on: September 24, 2013, 02:51:39 PM
I thinks it's been more than a year since I composed something.......
I don't compose to be original, but I think every pianist should compose and play something of their own - it really changes the way you approach other pieces........

I didn't hear anything particularly 'E minorish' but it's certainly an interesting little work. Lots of brooding character you managed to fit into 90 seconds! Some wonderful little moments when we think tension is just about to resolve but then you pile on more tension instead!

You should write more! You definitely have a knack for it.

I'm curious as to why you compose, if not to be original? Surely you don't do it just because it's a healthy thing to do....

There are some very nice chords and changes here. I too am inclined to think it a pity if you do not create more of your own music.

hehe, well, I just think that as a pianist, one must compose a little........it shows you how certain things in music command a certain interpretation.........

as for E minor.......that is the tonal center, even even there are inversions of the "half-diminished" chord piled on top of it.
