A short analysis on Sibelius his famous encore étude: op. 76 no. 2. Written in old school romantic style while Debussy & others were already heavy innovating... Sibelius maintained his romantic idiom and shows what can be done with so little material. This compact miniature is particularly elegant and amusing.

Thanks for putting the full performance on the start of the video
No problemo!
Excellent,thank you for this upload.
You're welcome Peter!
Great analysis! the simplicity of the theme also reminds me of Medtner's Sonata-Reminiscenza.
Does anyone else hear the similarity?
Indeed, similar contours in the opening bars
Yeah. But Medtner has of course more original harmonies and the structure is kinda more complex, well because Medtner was using more the philosophy - More is more.
Lol, I hope you don't believe that yourself. Perhaps you should think twice before passing judgment based on one composition by Sibelius. IMO the framework of a composition determines whether you should use a lot or little material. So no, more is not necessarily more.
Do you have more examples of latent melodies found in other works?
Can't wait for the Brahms analysis! Good stuff Timon!
Go take a look at Bach's solo sonatas for violin & cello, you will find and hear plenty! Thank you Elton
Ugh. Brahms. The music of sexual repression and rhythms for constipated white guys.
That was delightful, the right hand was so clear, and the left wasn't forced. That looks like something where I'd try to play it, but I'm not great at piano, I'd blur it at best, or just use the pedal. Ew. This one was great.
Yeah, that's something you need to practise without pedal first!
More is more...- Yngwie J. Malmsteen
Well it depends ofc 😅
😂
One thing is please play the segments/fragments as you explain them. A video about a musical piece without playing the bits is frustrating (especially for the visually impaired). Thank you for the excellent content.
Thank you, I do this in some of my recent videos, for example: th-cam.com/video/6xRFCqGYCLw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=dP1TCOMhcodSCOmR Thanks for pointing out!
This would double the length of the video. It’s not clear that would make it more accessible.
It's not a necessity to replay every single fragment. I'm now editing a new video about one of Ravel's works and it's just way better to replay some fragments for the listener.
Isn’t it at the last cadence at the end (the measure before the last one) a I 64 chord instead of V 64 chord?
Morphologically yes, functionally no. American and european analysis label this chord differently. Take a look at this video: th-cam.com/users/shortsdz8RxGKzxQk?si=nzX0wqJ1lubTfkmL
@@TimondeNood thanks, yes that makes sense. I watched a similar video on music theory but it was on an American channel
Glad it helped!
All capitals like a chav
What? I use the capitals because I don't distinguish between major and minor tonalities in my analysis...
@@TimondeNood starts piece "Amin: . . . "
I meant in the roman numerals ofc, the minor or major character is indeed indicated by those boxes or when the harmony modulates.
