    This is awesome. I feel like every Herrmann video I see is about Vertigo or Psycho. While I think those two are some of his best scores, there’s not much to say about them that hasn’t already been said. You picked a great deep cut to look at and it’s all VERY Herrmann.

The amazing thing is, even after knowing a bit more about how the music is structured, it is no less compelling. I need to try writing out some skketches just to get a feel for how it might work. GThanks again. Just came across your channel.

    • @AnyOldMusic
      @AnyOldMusic 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No worries, glad you took something from the video. I lie very much in the camp of music being made more beautiful through analysis. It's not for everyone. That said, I agree that this is particularly true of Pärt's music. In a strange way, for me, the simplicity of its technique and procedure often makes the music more complex. You know the technique and that there is really not a great deal to it, yet he's able to make such deep, seemingly meaningful/resonant music with it. If you're interested or it is of further help I have a free preview of my tintinnabuli course available at the moment. The whole first chapter is free and breaks down what's taught in this video even more. Link: anyoldmusic.thinkific.com/courses/Rule-Based-Music-Composition-Tintinnabuli

    You have a detailed and analytical description yet it is still very useful and meaningful! I’m very glad I came onto this today. I’m a composer and this morning I decided to compose a piece using his interesting timbre-synthesis , those classic sounds he gets from mini-arrangements of Flute & Clairinet (wonderful!) Harp & Vibraphone (mystic and mysterious) Oboe, Bassoon and French horn, also Cor Anglais Clairinet and Trumpet (no idea yet- interesting). I had my DAW set up with these but watching this I’m adding to it. I’ve made a Herrmman Template of just these groups and also a full symphonic template using BBCSO pro and MSS for the Symponic base and these added. I have a feeling by the time I finish your videos I’ll be glad I have 64GB ram!! If I manage to make something which isn’t embarrassing, with your approval I would happily link my Ode to Bernard here and offer you full use of the song as a thank you for your great work!
