The joy of connecting dots
Together
My first experiment interpreting a two-person piece. I wanted to have distinct personalities rather than repeating motifs across instruments. The piano, recorded first, turned out to be bit wobbly and ADHD. So for contrast the bando ended up somewhat autistic and with sharper edges. The sound quality is poor, but I need to learn editing to fix that.

My paintings
มุมมอง 1423 หลายเดือนก่อน
Paintings and some sketches I made in 2021-2024. They are either acrylic or watercolour (with the odd pastel or china ink) on canvas or paper.
Antigo (piano solo)
มุมมอง 643 หลายเดือนก่อน
Originally composed for classical guitar circa 2000. Somewhat late romantic in style.
Aurora (piano solo)
มุมมอง 157 หลายเดือนก่อน
I wanted the first main theme to be tonally ambiguous, the second to have a jumpy melody, and the variation to have the melody in the bass. It's a mazurka, so if you can dance to it.
Arpeggio (piano solo)
มุมมอง 127 หลายเดือนก่อน
Here I wanted to have the melodies floating free from the rhythm, and to have non-obvious tonality changes. It reminds me of autumn.
Clausula Vera (piano solo)
มุมมอง 147 หลายเดือนก่อน
In medieval harmony a true ending (clausula vera) is when two voices reached the tonic with stepwise opposite movement. Here I try to make a whole piece only with scales, a pentatonic arpeggio and the odd skipping of minor ninth intervals.
Ostinato (piano solo)
มุมมอง 87 หลายเดือนก่อน
Here I explore several symmetries. The melody is strictly step-wise, with the occasional arpeggio, and there is no real harmonic movement, just recurrent descending thirds that don't go anywhere. I find the middle section particularly satisfying.
Tintinnabulum (piano solo)
มุมมอง 157 หลายเดือนก่อน
This piece explores symmetries, with a mirrored two-voice theme which is reversed at the end, and variations in between. It reminds me of bells ringing in the countryside.
Tot Ziens (piano solo)
มุมมอง 207 หลายเดือนก่อน
Originally thought of as a goodbye piece. It reminds me of an amusement park soundtrack.

I came across your piece when searching for the term clausula vera. Not quite what I was looking for of course, but a pleasant surprise nonetheless. You have real talent!
Hi @DivergentIntegral, thank you for listening. I hope you managed to find what you were looking for. If it was obvious examples of the use of clausula vera with beautiful music you can check the (endings) of the themes of Nuper rosarum flores or Douleur me bat (and most of everything up to the Renaissance, really).
@@TenuousLines Thank you for recommending such wonderful music. I was specifically looking for the clausula vera as it was used in the galant era (the term is used in Robert Gjerdingen's book on the galant style). But I guess it's too trivial a thing to deserve a video of its own.
nicely played 😁
Gosto muito!😊
Que lindo! 😍
