A happy tune

on: November 29, 2013, 05:37:52 PM

At the job I create value...and this time at the piano I attempted to create happiness via my usual improvisation.

Major key and light rhythm was used to make a brighter tone, and I was feeling quite happy too. I left the left hand as stable chord support because I my brain is not quad core. I didn't manage to give it a proper ending as usual.

How do you guys make a song sound happy?

Nice improv, I can usually only write/improv really happy stuff when i'm in that particular mood and then just play and see what comes out. I think that the more styles you learn to play, the greater the emotional vocabulary you have to draw from when you are improvising.
