HeckelphoneNYC Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 My favorite key to improvise on is g minor. I like to compose generally in g minor, a minor, and f minor. You must like sad music..... :sadtears::sadtears: Quote
JLMoriart Posted November 14, 2009 Posted November 14, 2009 Oh man, lets make music playable only on isomorphic keyboards... How many other types of music require certain types of instruments to be played? Of COURSE this is going to be the case. The only difference is that the instrument came as a product of the theory that describes the music. I really don't know how many times you want me to explain to you why dynamic tonality is a waste of time. Didn't I just make the point that your reference to that thread that focused on dynamic tonality was irrelevant to our current discussion because I am talking here about specifically isomorphic instruments, not necessarily there potential for invariance across tunings and their applications in dynamic tonality? Me: I think isomorphic instruments are *A* (I say what I think about isomorphic instruments) You: Dynamic tonality is STUPID!!! X-D YAYYY. (You attempt to counter these claims with an argument agaist dynamic tonality, which I specifically said is not necessary to discuss the simpler benefits of isomorphic instruments.) It opens up no "avenues of compositional expression" that weren't already there. It has no practical application. It is a complete waste of time. Charlie Oh, I forgot about all of the other applications that allow for both fingering invariance across tunings and consonance in those tunings... It is NEW and allows for DIFFERENT forms of expression. You may still consider it a waste of time and I can't change that, but every time you try to say it isn't new, you are blatantly wrong.

iwmthor Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Mine would be C Major. I don't think anyone here has the liking for this key but me. There's nothing wrong with liking the simplest key. Quote
sum1 Posted November 19, 2009 Posted November 19, 2009 Dude. Attack problems, not people. I tend to write my pieces in whatever key I like to sing/play them in. Quote

CarlosCamejo Posted November 20, 2009 Posted November 20, 2009 C# minor. It's always struck me as such a beautiful key. Quote
HeckelphoneNYC Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Well today I'm in a Eb mixolydian mood. So I'm writing something in it. Fair enough, eh? Quote
Volt Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 #1: E minor- Simple to Improvise, Not overbearingly powerful Runner Ups: G minor, D minor, and Eb Major Overall, it's just to the key I always hum new tunes to myself. And most of the times its in E Minor. Lately, A Dorian has been a personal favorite (for some odd reason)... Quote
DJ Fatuus Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 #1: E minor- Simple to Improvise, Not overbearingly powerful Runner Ups: G minor, D minor, and Eb Major I don't get it, surely no flats/sharps would be easiest for improv..? Quote
Mantas Savickis Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 I am not writing in key :P I really like mode: G G# A# B C# D E F :) (minor second - major sec - min - major...) But when I am improvising jazz I really like e-minor, c-minor and g-minor Quote
DJ Fatuus Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 I am not writing in key :P I really like mode: G G# A# B C# D E F :) (minor second - major sec - min - major...) Octatonic :) Quote
Mantas Savickis Posted December 1, 2009 Posted December 1, 2009 Octatonic :) Yeah my english is not perfect :) Quote
