    CLIP: Twin Peaks: "Angelo Badalamenti explains how he wrote Laura Palmer's Theme"
    ARTIST: Angelo Badalamenti
    WRITER: Angelo Badalamenti (1990)
    This is a transcription of the performance by composer Angelo Badalementi (1937-2022) which was part of the making-of documentary, "Secrets from Another Place: Creating Twin Peaks" (2007), released on the Twin Peaks: Definitive Gold Box Edition, and later uploaded to RUclips.
    Angelo Badalementi reenacts the 'scene' when he and David Lynch conjured up this picturesque theme, and his intense narration adds a whole new aspect enhancing the music.
    This theme is surprisingly easy to play, so this piece is an ideal beginner's piece for any fan of Twin Peaks.

    we are in the dark woods now. there is a soft wind blowing through some sycamore trees and some animal sounds in the background. you can hear the hoot of an owl... from behind the trees, in the back of the woods, there is this lonely girl. her name is Laura Palmer, and it is very sad. she is coming closer. she is getting close. now she is starting to leave... back to the dark woods, very quiet and mysterious.

    This piece represents the definition of Kant of the "sublime". Ineffable. One of the best compositions ever written in the entire history of music, especially for what it means, because this piece describes the essence of life. Angelo is a gift of a superior entity, it is not possible.

    • @0live0wire0
      @0live0wire0 5 лет назад +4

      It's great, Badalamenti is a master. Some of the best film music definitely, but let's not get carried away. I mean there are composers like Bach, Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Liszt, Wagner, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Strauss, Debussy, Ravel, Saint-Saens, Stravinsky, Shostakovitch, Bartok to name a few. That's what I call a tough crowd. It's really hard being a contemporary composer and measuring up to the greats.

    • @NikolajStavroginKeyboard1
      @NikolajStavroginKeyboard1 5 лет назад

      @@0live0wire0 Totally agree, I sweated a bit piano and then I also listen to classical music, and I can't but agree with your words, on all those you mentioned I think Bach comes first, personal opinion, even if it's impossible assign the primacy to none of those composers, all of them immensity. On Badalamenti I meant that this passage, for the meaning inherent in it, is one of the greatest ever composed, for me it represents the essence of life as understood by Leopardi, for example.

    can someone explain ?

    • @TedMackey
      @TedMackey 2 года назад +1

      My two cents - I hear the modulation from C minor to C major in b. 13-14 as a sort of bVII - I over pedal C, with the prominent D natural in bar 13 leading us nicely into the tonic major.
      The C major - E major tertiary modulation (and then in turn the next move to F minor) are all kind of rooted in the reinterpretation of “Ab” (which isn’t unexpected as we’ve just been in C minor) as G#, to go to E Major, and then back to Ab in bar 18 (but in the key of F minor as opposed to C minor).
      Then the resolution back to C major for the climax is a lovely iv-I cadence, with a similarly prominent D natural to E natural movement as in bb. 13-14.
