This was again another useful videolesson ! As I started my first compisition lessons ! These are all usefull tips to keep in mind ! Thx a lot for sharing your knowledge !
Very funny episode! Hahahaha Parallel seconds are hard, specially with two different tonalities. I recorded 3 voices for a demo song last week, main melody and two secondary voices. The final result of the arrangement was very good but the lines were very difficult to sing. The arranger said that a full choir will record the song besides the soloists and he wrote that way because he had only me but it will be written properly later. And I know his work, I can say his counterpoint and voice leading are impeccable. Thank you so much for the video!
Yes, it can often be difficult to find a good balance between good voice leading and interesting harmonies, though I enjoy this challenge, and trying to find the best solution! It's especially satisfying when you get a piece of music with a lot of close harmonies that isn't hard to perform since the voice leading is good throughout!
Alas, Knut, I am the guilty one (rather than the victim), having recently worked out a lovely little (2:05) "hymn-like" piece with delightful SATB harmonies but rather demanding voice leading here and there . I'm going to work on cleaning up the voice leading, where I can, following some of your suggestions! I'd be pleased to send it to you for a critique if you're interested.
All your videos are one of the best on Choral. Please continue to make great videos. Thanks for a great video.
Keep 'em coming Knut, you're producing some of the best and clearest clips on choral arranging on TH-cam. Well done and thank you
Great work Knut, I'm learning a lot from you!
got it, super clever lessons, as always.

Very, very interesting and educational..... and a touch of amusement at the end!

Great tips Knut! Loved Therese's part in this too - very funny!
Thank you! Yes, she's a great asset to the process and makes it 10x more fun to make as well! :-D
analyze the counterpoint in Jazz. Mind blowing.
Great teaching videos for better musicianship.

Have you ever sung a piece with terrible voice leading? Please share your experience! X-D
