    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    One of the most famous arias from the opera ‘Carmen’, this enchanting melody builds upon dynamics, chromatic runs, and key changes to create an everlasting piece. I have split the arrangement up into the following sections:
    Intro
    Melodies A-E
    Each melody is 8 bars in length. The song begins in D minor and modulates to the parallel major (D Major) in melody C. What this means is, the tone and feel of the song switches from minor (sad) to major (happy). This is a challenging piece, and with that said, I would recommend to work on one melody at a time. This piece is all about dynamics and playing with feeling (lesson link below). Throughout the lesson videos we will touch upon concepts and ideas on how to get this across in our performance.

    Just for the record, as Andrew mentions several times in the video that the song modulates from D minor to the relative key of D major. D major is not the relative key to D minor, but the parallel key. The relative key to D minor would be F major, as they share the same key signature, while D major and D minor don't. It's shown correctly in the score, where the key signature changes in measure 20 from one flat (D minor) to two sharps (D major).

      @@RockClass101 It actually gets even more confusing for me, as my native language happens to be German. What you call relative key in English is actually called parallel key in German, and what you call parallel key in English is called variant key in German.

      @shooting.street 10 месяцев назад

      @@RockClass101 So now I face a dilemma. Since you are teaching exactly the kind of music I want to learn to play, and in particular Habanera for now, should I switch to a high G Uke or if I sign up to classes do you have an arrangement for a low G as well?
      I guess really what I am thinking is does this give me a great excuse to buy another Uke?

    • @RockClass101
      @RockClass101  10 месяцев назад

      We do not have an alternative arrangement of this song for low G, but we do have over a hundred lessons/arrangements for other songs in low G tuning. 😊
      I'd recommend picking up a high G uke. It's always great to have both options.
