OCCURRENCES
on: June 29, 2021, 08:53:30 PM
I have composed a set of 14 pieces for piano which were improvised in the moment.

The title of 'occurrence' has been pondered for a very long time. But now, the time is right.
I could say a lot more, but perhaps its best to do so only when prompted.

As stated in the description on YouTube, I am open to suggestions about the most ideal ordering of the works. To be honest, all comments are welcome.

I have attatched one of the pieces (Currently Occurrence No.7)

I thought this was very well done! You obviously know your harmony well, and the melody is very attractive. Great job!

Wonderful command of spontaneous romantic lyricism. I listened to several of them and they are all poignantly beautiful. The order of the set wouldn’t matter to me so I shall leave that question to the others.

Well done!  You have an excellent sense of this style and how to develop ideas organically within it.

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The great early 20th-century composer Alexander Scriabin left us 74 published opuses, and several unpublished manuscripts, mainly from his teenage years – when he would never go to bed without first putting a copy of Chopin’s music under his pillow.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
