What form is this piece?
on: December 23, 2013, 03:24:49 PM
The other day, I wrote a piano piece of a certain form, but I forgot what form it was. I was wondering if someone could help me out with the form so I know where to expand on it.

Sheet music attached.

Update: Sheet music errors fixed.

kakeithewolf,

can you play and feel that what you wrote?

I am sorry, but I am not capable to feel a 33/32 meter.


How could you forget the form? The form is written down on the sheet!!!

Yeah, I made an error when writing it in 33/32. I meant to write it in 3/2.

And where did I write the form down?

OK, you made a 3/2 out of it. But look at your rhythmic grouping inside the first bar for example. It is not written as a regular 3/2. A 3/2 meter is notated in a different manner. Please study --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_signature
Also the rest of the song is rhythmically written wrong.

The form of a piece of music you obbey counting the bars and dividing them into general sense based parts. You can do this on pieces who have a form.
In your case you first should clear up the rhythmic notation because form also has to do something with rhythm!

So, it has no form? Well, that would have been good to say first.

Free form?  Improvisation?

Is that you improvising and music notation software notating it?  It kind of looks like that...

No, my timing is worse on improvisation, and what I make in improvisation is leagues better than this, sadly.

You meant to notate it like that?  I was thinking the 8ths could have a phrase mark instead of double dot.  It's hard to read.

In retrospect, I probably should have done that.
