Jan-Peter Posted November 27, 2021 Posted November 27, 2021 Today I tried to go to a bare minimum in music in which things still make sense to me (I know you can push this far more further). What do you think? It's hard to make something this simple which is still valuable after listening a couple of times. My respect for Pärt grew today...

Chou-Chou Posted November 28, 2021 Posted November 28, 2021 I like it. I don't mean to diminish it in any way by saying this, quite the opposite actually, but it reminds me of some of the Minecraft soundtrack songs. Creating something simple yet interesting is very hard. I loved the chords from 2:07 onward. 1 Quote
Jan-Peter Posted November 28, 2021 Author Posted November 28, 2021 Yes it is hard but thanks for your compliment! I get where your Minecraft idea comes from! Although this is hardly a melody, more like melodic fragments/cells. If someone is to play it I ask him or her to give every note it's own subtle quality and weight. A bit like you hear in performance of the works of Morton Feldman. 1 Quote
Chou-Chou Posted November 29, 2021 Posted November 29, 2021 As the Maestro said himself: "I make one sound, and then I move on to the next". -Morton Feldman I listened to his Piano and String Quartet, fascinating piece, especially toward the end. 1 Quote
