Btw, you might want to show the accidentals in 0:30 - 0:44 to make sightreading easier (for example, beginning of measure 35, beginning of measure 37, etc.). Though writing it in a single day is a valid excuse not to have them included lol
Hi! Thank you so much! Yes, I thought about it, but for some reason it disturbed my eyes😂 but you are absolutely right, I think adding them will be a good idea (in case someone except me will want to read it lol)
Thank you David, it's nice to know. I already recorded the whole opus 10 about a month ago, but was too busy to upload, as mixing the audio and editing it takes time. I will post the remaining two in the next days!
Hi Andy, I agree with you about the Rachmaninoff' influence. But I would have to disagree that it sounds like his music. Simply, there are many more styles and cultures that I mixed in this piece, and you cannot find any Rachmaninoff's piece sound like this one. Texture&voicing&harmonywise it is similar, but yet not the same. He is my favorite composer after all. My point on contemporary music is the following: the atonal, dissonant music is also not new anymore, because as far you go from tonality, it can also sound quite alike (if you use only dissonanses), and, it's a thing of the past as well (20th century has discovered most of it). So I think that coming back to the older styles, discovering new things in them, and mixing them with each other will create a fresher music. Simply because our ears today cannot be the same to ears of the greats, like Rachmaninoff, because we heard the music they didn't hear, including all the pop, jazz, dodecaphony, spectral music, minimalist music etc. I get quite upset, when nowadays people call the music, which has any sense of tonality "not fresh", while, in fact, most of the contemporary music got stuck in a very dissonant phase, which comes already from the previous century. The music should, first above all evoke feelings. Different kinds. And if that is achieved, I do not care in which styles the music is writte. Have a good time!

@@nikitashestakov. Great. Looking forward to hearing them Nikita
this is pretty good
Thank you!
Not bad from the pianistical point of view. The music is not fresh though. Too Rachmaninoff. Need more originality.
