Some Guy That writes Music Posted October 15 Posted October 15 (edited) Hello everyone again, Today I bring forward my first choral piece that I've been proud of *in years*. It has been a very inspired piece written over the course of today (I skipped my Italian Class for this, Mi spiace!). Anyways about this piece. I've been wanting to write a choral piece for a while now, and I had recently felt inspired, so I've been scouring here-and-there for poems. And although I had read dozens of poems that moved me and made me want to write a piece; I struggled to connect the words and music. So I decided to write my own, and I figured the most convincing writing I could do, would be for my partner. So this whole piece is written directly to my love. The main overarching theme is; I could never overstate my affection, because words could never say everything I felt. So I use music to do so. The song begins with very classic American clichés. "you are the apple of my eye. the wonder of my daily life. my shining star" Exaggerated and cheesy language, which is how I talk with my partner. There are slow, fast, loud and quiet "I love yous" because I find myself saying it differently and meaning it the same way all the time. Then we get to the crux of the piece "I love you more than words could ever express. But I'll try". Even though just saying 'i love you' does not say it all, it gets me that much closer, and proclaiming love many times gets me closer to that unreachable goal. And then we loop around and say things again. This piece is in ABACA form and for the C section I decided to not use any words. I hope you enjoy, and please give me feedback to improve this piece, if there is anything (even if you can't figure out what it is) let me know and I'll take your feedback. This would be a good piece for my choir to perform, I just want to make sure I didn't miss anything important.
