Late Romantic Style - Composing for the Piano
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 พ.ค. 2024
- In this episode of composing for the piano we talk about writing in a late Romantic style. We take the music matters theme and arrange it into a late Romantic style, discussing music composition techniques and tips when composing for the piano in a romantic style. The video demonstrates how to take a musical idea written in one style and present it in a totally different style. To make the stylistic change effective we make alterations to the rhythm, to the texture, and to the harmony, to create a sound that draws on the late Romantic style and showing how to use the piano in a suitably idiomatic way. Useful for composers, arrangers and performers alike.

"Like Rachmaninoff or something" awesome. I loved that.

If you were my teacher I would’ve never skipped a class! Thank you for sharing and inspiring. I now go compose my tune in the style of Rachmaninov😚
That’s kind. Enjoy being Rachmaninov!
Music theory, but unpretentious - love it!

This channel is really one of the best regarding music theory, thank you! One of the few that actually made me buy a course yesterday :)
Glad it’s helpful. Enjoy the course you’ve downloaded.
Sounds like the real thing. Instructive and funny.

Sounds quite good!!
Glad you like it. All the best. Gareth
Great material. I discovered the channel and already subscribed it!
I just want to make an observation: the E dim 7th chord on the fourth pulse (1st measure) needs a becuadro (♮) on the E note, left hand.
Well spotted!
Brilliant!
Glad it’s helpful.
Hello again! I have to say thanks for all the simple guides you have given us musicians. I believe you have the capability of growing your channel even more! I have watched most of your videos on composition, and I'm quite interested in composing a Sonata or a piece on Rondeau (Rondo) Form. I have studied the rondo form structure, but not quite sure how do I compose a piece of music with just the structure ABABC. I hope you could help me with that. Thank you.
Hi. Thanks for your positive comments. The best thing is to write your ABC ideas then work out how to connect them. If you want a one to one Skype lesson you can book one at www.mmcourses.co.uk
@@MusicMattersGB got it. I can't pay for it myself, but I will once I get my first pay. Thanks again.
Ok. All the best.
Thank you kindly.
A pleasure
Super!
😀
Bravo!
That’s most kind. Much more at www.mmcourses.co.uk including details of our online courses and of our exciting Maestros programme.
Nice explanation.
NB - the E note in the left-hand (4th beat) needs to have a natural sign.
Correct
I think diminished chords really spice up the music
They certainly do.

Do you have a course that goes more in depth into writing in this style (and other "classical" music styles)? Or are these just individual youtube videos? I would be interested in buying a course that would go more in depth into writing in these styles (especially romantic and late romantic era)
Have a look at www.mmcourses.co.uk for our full range of 25 online courses.
Music Matters thank you. I did look over the selection of courses, and couldn’t find a specific course that directly talked about this. From your opinion, which course would most closely align (advanced music theory course, the composition course, or one of the webinar courses?). Thank you for your patience!
It really depends exactly what you’re looking for. The Baroque webinar series gets into Baroque style, including some Baroque compositional techniques. The Advanced Theory course includes writing in Baroque style and Classical/Romantic piano style. The Counterpoint course covers Baroque Counterpoint techniques.
I love the look you give us as it ends! The beginning has a St Trinian's sound to it. Does that mean wine flows out of the taps in your house?
If only...!
Can u do a dark style music composing
Ok
The first part sounds like When I'm 64 by The Beatles
😀
I think this every time I hear it! Would love to see a video about this.
I'm just here because I want to be able to make something a one-thousandth the beauty of Liszt's music
Great reason to be here. Much to help you in that goal at www.mmcourses.co.uk for details of our 25 online courses and of our Maestros programme.
WAOW
A pleasure. See www.mmcourses.co.uk for details of our 25 online courses and of our Maestros programme. All the best. Gareth and Alex.
it's kinda jazzy to my ears.
😀
Are not different melodies characteristic of different periods?
Sure. See our video on style and period recognition.
Thank you so much for your reply. What I’m really trying to solve is a way of schematising which harmonic and chord progressions, and key modulations, may be said to be typically characteristic of the Early, Baroque, Classical, and Romantic and perhaps the modern period one by one.
I’m not sure it works as neatly as that. One can say that 1c V 1 or ll7b V l are typical Baroque procedures or that lc V happens at plenty of Classical cadential points or that Liszt often strings Diminished 7ths together but beyond those kind of general observations all you can do is to look at the hallmarks of individual composers.
Music Matters Thank you very much. Very good of you to answer.
inspiring video; left hand jazz chords would be nice, very 42nd Street; or some cool Big band 10502 style e.g. Glenn Miller.
😀
whose piece of music is this?
The Music Matters theme was composed by me, Gareth.
Do you know i have never touched a piano in my life,I only learn guitar. So,I also don't know reading sight music
Reading music is always a useful skill to learn.
