    if this was written by Liszt i could already imagine the 1000s of virtuoso pianists almost in a race to champion this gigantic piece, we would be talking of the "golden age" pianists in reference to this brilliant (albeit computer generated) interpretation of this brilliant piece. Bravissimo!

    That's so nice. How did you catch the style of the young virtuoso Liszt in every aspect (cadenza, variation on themes, transitions, nice harmonies)?

    • @stevenwanyhcomposer
      @stevenwanyhcomposer 5 месяцев назад

      I have developed my Lisztian style of composition for several years. During this time, I listened to a lot of Liszt pieces, and from time to time, I will select excerpts of Liszt's pieces to analyse (in terms of harmony, structure, altered scales in cadenza etc.) Nahre Sol did an excellent video on breaking down Lisztian elements in music, such as alternating two harmonies to weave cadenzas and chromatic mediant modulations. You can check that out too.

    One of the most important themes beginning in bar 9 of the overture, the motif that sets up the entire opera, and you didn’t include it…why?

    • @stevenwanyhcomposer
      @stevenwanyhcomposer 8 месяцев назад

      So, several things: 1. The triplet motif of that theme has been utilized throughout the whole piece. My explanation of the piece's structure in the video description has highlighted how I used it. 2. Theme 1 is also from the Overture, and it also is a very important theme throughout the opera. The reason why I didn't want to include both from the same source is that I generally hope to get a diverse set of themes. 3. The theme you mentioned is more transitional in function in the music. I tried using it in my piece's transitions but I didn't find a convincing way to do so, so I scratched it.
