Luis Hernández Posted June 24, 2017 Posted June 24, 2017 This is the last piece. Using mosaic form, that I love. I've taken some phrases from past exercises (recycling!). 1 Quote
MusicianXX12 Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 An atmospheric piece! I like your contrapuntal writing. The harmonies are contemporary and coherent (IMHO). Quote
Monarcheon Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 Well, first make sure your clarinet is actually in Bb. Currently it's written in C. The figure of a dotted quarter then a half note should be notated as a dotted quarter, eighth, dotted quarter tied together. It's nice when a phrase seems to have some sort of non-functional resolution, and the homophony was lovely. Some of the ornamental wind stuff against the piano I heard as kind of filler for space sometimes. The counterpoint was okay too. Cheers- 1 Quote
Maarten Bauer Posted June 25, 2017 Posted June 25, 2017 In my opinion it's wonderful. Very fresh. Each melody is independent and yet they all blend together very well. I love the harmonies, expecially those in the piano part. The idea of using fragments and using these in other themes is genius. It supports the coherency. I love it! Quote
Luis Hernández Posted June 25, 2017 Author Posted June 25, 2017 Thanks. This is a part, in the beginning of the suite I say the clarinet is in concert pitch. I usually don't transpose in non-tonal backgrounds. Regarding the figures..., I don't know. Sometimes, to make everything clearer, I don't follow that rules. In that sense, a teacher I had corrected me, when using ametric or rhythmic complex phrases, in this contemporary style. I understand those objections, anyway. Quote
