Impressionist improvisation
on: August 24, 2014, 08:40:56 AM
Hi
Check out my live performance of a visual impressionist improvisation.
https://goo.gl/fVvYCl
I had a musical composition audition at my conservatoire earlier this year. In this audition, I was asked to play an improvisation in any style I wanted. I chose Impressionist because I love the harmonies and the feeling of wandering around with no particular direction. I was about to play in Modern classical Avant-garde style.
The improvisation structure:
▶ Introduction
▶ Part I: "The sea"
▫ "Ocean waves and storm"
▶ Part II: "Mysterious Island"
▫ "The Abyss"
▶ Part III: "Calm before the storm"
▶ Epilogue
I did not upload the video without images because it would not have the same effect. Nowadays, with technology, we can enjoy music using more senses. Who knows, maybe they will invent something for you to be able to smell a rose with your computer in the near (or not) future.
While I improvise, I imagine and represent what I see in my mind. It is hard for people to know what I am thinking of, that is why I added images, for you to understand, more or less, what I had in mind.
Thank you for watching!
