Learning from Brahms.

Hello, how are you?
I hope you are well in this Easter period (wherever it is celebrated). In my country there are many holidays, so a little time to do things.
Back to the music... After delving a few months into the compositional resources of Chopin, I have decided to go into a composer that I find more difficult, to see if I learn something: Brahms.
Attending only to solo piano music, I have read, analyzed, and above all listened to, many pieces.
I have tried to write something, much simpler, incorporating some of its characteristics as for example:

• -Melodies mainly by continuous degrees.
• -Several melodic planes (with internal melodies).
• -All conglomerated in counterpoint as a base.
• -Wide arpeggios
• -Harmonization in thirds / sixths.
• -Polyrhythm and use of hemiola.
• -Harmonic sequences based on conduction of voices (measures 11 - 16).
• -Omnibus progression (measures 25 - 29).
• Etc.

I do not try to imitate Brahms, it would be impossible for me to reach 10% of his level. Only to include his resources in the music.

Very Beautifully played..............with no mistakes.

Thanks, but it's not human execution, it's all with software.

Well yes ofcourse.........But it was all created by YOU, including the song too

It wasn't a Re-Creation .......its an ORIGINAL.

@FILMSCORE

Ah yes. Although everything is generated with a virtual instrument, I try to take care as much as I can of the dynamics, rubato, etc...
Thank you.

You could  take this one step further, by orchestrating strings,and soft-horns,and cello bass,

BEHIND the Piano solo.............. to create a Beautifull Ensemble.

@FILMSCORE

I don't know...
When I've tried to orchestrate something I've done for the piano..., I almost never get to the end. I prefer, if it's for orchestra, to do it thinking about it from the beginning.
But well, it can be a challenge...

You CAN do it....... 1 step at a time

Imagine yourself playing this on the Grand-Piano, in a Massive Concert Hall

Center stage with the Orchestra all Around you...........They would gently play softly, ACCORDINGLY to the notes you played.

It may take time..........But you have the power to create.
