edfgi234 Posted January 28, 2020 Posted January 28, 2020 Gradually trying to work up the keys. This nocturne is again an update like the Eb major one was. Its taking ages. Not sure about the time signatures or ending. No slurs as the software treats the slurs as a pedal sometimes. This piece might be a bit of a mess but don't know. Feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. MP3 Play / pause JavaScript is required. 0:00 0:00 volume > next menu 24 Nocturnes - no. 8 in Eb Minor > next PDF 24 Nocturnes - no. 8 in Eb Minor - Full Score 2 Quote
Tortualex Posted January 29, 2020 Posted January 29, 2020 (edited) The first 5 measures, sound a little, too "harsh" to be a nocturne, but I think that's because of the soundfont you used. Try to consider adding some pedal on those measures. I like your use of irregular groupings and odd metrics, that makes it sound pretty modern but at the same time very classical. The end is misterious, to me it sounds like it should continue, i think it's because you made the bass stop with the last chord, but the melody still keept going.

maestrowick Posted February 10, 2020 Posted February 10, 2020 Cb? Wow....hurt a musician, why don't you. Measures 41-47 could be expanding more. This piece was great to listen to! Look forward to hearing more. 1 Quote
Jean Szulc Posted February 11, 2020 Posted February 11, 2020 Awesome! There are really nice ideas in here, and the piece sounds very complete. Perhaps it would be better named as "fantasia". The notation is a bit of a mess, but it just needs some work done, nothing serious. I don't see why you changed the key signature right at the end. Also the time signature changes sometimes don't make much sense. For example in M.40: you have 5/4 and then 3/4, while the last bar in M.40 could easly be placed in M.41. Why not keep both 4/4? Anyways, if played nicely think it would sound very entertaining. I love this kind of bubbly, dreamy textures you have going on here. 1 Quote
J.Santos Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 I enjoyed the piece, I see some disconnection between parts, but that may be your intentions. A great complex work, I working for reaching that point, amazing job! 1 Quote
