This made for eerily perfect background noise as I researched the Leningrad seed vault for my podcast -- a dozen scientists starved to death while protecting thousands of varieties of seeds from around the world as the Germans sieged the city for nearly 3 years.
Herman, why do you choose "eighth-quarter-quarter-eighth" in the left hand opposed to the tied eighth-note version? Just curious. I believe your way is clearer for the reader, but I once had a professor in college explain that the beat should always be shown.
Not Herman, but oh well- It depends how you view it because it's in 3/4 time. In 2/4 and 4/4, the similar eighth-quarter-eighth idea is pretty common. In these, beats 1 and 3 should always be shown, but in 3/4, there is a little more ambiguity because you can feel it in one or in three
@@charmonicmajor Nicely put! I studied a good bit of conducting in college (I understand the triple meter for 3/4 being felt in three or one- generally three for a slower tempo and one for a quicker tempo.) Makes sense with the stronger beats (1 and 3) to always be visible in the part. I suppose Herman understood that the downbeat in 1/3 is most important. Counts 2 and 3 are weaker.
I do understand Hermann's view. This way of writing gives a right syncopation in the bar. It reminds me of extra systolic rhythm of the heart. The first strong beat is divided I two the third beat is in movement with with the first beat a way to keep the rhythm tied together. Thank you.
@@francobonanni218 Thanks for your reply, Franco. I'd definitely prefer this E-Q-Q-E part over the tied version any day, I was simply curious. Thanks again!
I wish this piece was for flute as well so I could play it, since I can't really play piano, but it's still really pretty and hopefully a lot of pianist will play this beautiful piece. 😊
Can you please compose an easier piece similar, to “the lake” I really love your music but I’m not the best at piano, I’d really love a piece that is a little easier to play
Why are there so many atonal composers? Your music feels genuine. Inspired. I like it. I have a sting quartet on my channel. Id be curios to see what you think of the 1st movement, if you have the time of course. Hope you are well and healthy. Really digging your compositions. Thanks for uploading the scores too! I have the same for my music too. I think its so cool to share what you actually wrote. It gives me more clarity to your musical ideas. David Bruce does this sometimes too.
Also, please explain how you upload piano sheet music. I've been trying to upload mine here for some time. If you are interested in performing my works and making a video, let me know. You'll further be featured on RUclips. Musically Yours, Anthony www.antjamnow.com
You might actually be my favorite composer even though you don't compose for my instrument. Well done, sir
This is a score for a movie playing in my head. A gentle cello and we're set.
I love to hear all of your music! As a young flautist and pianist, I want to strive to be able to play these songs!
me too!!
I love the simple elegance of it
I could never play piano this nicely but this piece is so pretty :')
I cant play piano, but Im gonna play the top part on my flute, cant wait to see how it turns out. This is a beautifal piece.
Listening to this piece makes me feel nostalgic and it also warm my heart
Thanks Mister Beeftink ! ☺☺
You are actually my favorite composer ever
This is so beautiful and relaxing. It really relieves my stress😊 Thank You!!
Same. I think I will start listening to it every time I feel really stressed 😁
Love your music. Extreme beautiful. Will buy almost everything for my pianolessons.

When you write your music is alot of it in a pentatonic scale??

Not my cup of tea, but glad to see modern compositions that aren't the unlistenable academic rot of Boulez fanboys.
I think is quite easy to play. (Yeah, I can play Herman's songs)
Write a fugue
