BrotherVIOLA666 Posted July 7, 2020 Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) This piece is only made using chords. This is just an experiment. feedback expected.BTW Inspired from chopins e minor prelude.(op 28 no 4) https://flat.io/score/5ecfa73218c179027f492cdd-warning-cursed-audio Edited July 8, 2020 by BrotherVIOLA666 2 Quote
i(don't)suckatcomposing Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 I don't know if I would call this a piece. I think it is a really great chord progression 1 Quote

So what can you call it? I don't know, When I hear it, it just screams harmony, it needs a melody. To me, its just too boring. Maybe it could be a textbook example on advanced harmony(compared to what you learn in Music Theory 1) Quote
Luis Hernández Posted July 8, 2020 Posted July 8, 2020 It's nice, but working with chords has many more possibilities Quote
8opus Posted July 9, 2020 Posted July 9, 2020 Have you tried playing it on a real piano? The infinite pedale might become pretty messy, I think. Also, if you don't want to add any notes to the piece, why don't you try to voice some notes from your chords to create a melody line? Quote

And why not creating a melody based on that nice progression? I see your chords are mainly linked harmonically, so at least one note is shared by two consecutive chords. You can take advantage of that and create a simple melodic line using the shared notes. It don't has to be complicated at all, but I think it could work fine and give more sense to your progression. Usually I create the melody first and then I look for an accompaniment accordingly, but sometimes it happens the other way arround and the results are nice as well 😉 Edited July 9, 2020 by Guillem82 Quote
