Listening to these type of videos (ones that break down harmonisation of romance classical composers) helps me understand it’s influence in Joe Hisaishi’s work and understand his style.
Great video! I personally dislike using suspensions in the bass because I always find it sounds awkward and it often sounds more like a clunky change of harmony rather than an actual suspension. But as you said, it’s ultimately all up to our own aesthetic decisions.
@@skylarlimex I agree! 9-8 (or 2-1 I suppose?) in the bass of a minor chord makes such a crunchy sound!! I suppose one just have to pick when to do what ;)
It's cool to see how differently you can harmonically interpret the melody. When I tried the harmonization, I modulated to a minor through the dominant E major chord (with the D# suspensions), and used a falling bass where the repeated Cs were to modulate back to a G major cadence. It sounded almost exactly like something Schumann would write when I played it on the piano.
Thank you for the great video. I think in the last part, turning the suspensions into the main motif takes the focus off the melody. So I prefer not to do it, or at least not to do it in all of the voices.
Could you recommend literature to firther learn this style? Your videos allow me a glimpse behind the curtain and now I can’t stop wanting to compose more like this
Here s a bla bla theres no mathematically rules in harmony lets assume 10 people will harmonise this sequence will they come with the same harmonic result? NO if i ask 5 plus 5 what it makes 1million people will answer 10 in harmony theres no rules we just come close but cannot hit. Im composer i know what Im saying

i think not many people realise how much today's music is greatly influenced by the works and techniques of the past
@@skylarlimex could you do a video on Joe Hisiashi or harmonising like Japanese composers
@@indianruckus6412 i'll think about it

i get what you mean but they do sound quite effective in some cases e.g D suspension in the bass with c minor in the top

Love this! Phenomenal content. So quick, pedagogical and instructive!
Thats a very nice format. Please more of these!
beautifully explained and produced. Thank you for making this video, I look forward to more of this. Thank you!
You`re awesome, dont stop!
gorgeous! cheers, Skylar!
These videos are very helpful and well designed. Thank you!
Very helpful in composing!
Thanks for posting, it’s a very nice vídeo, in my case I can remember my classes when I was a student❤
Fantastic 🎶🎶🎶
These are so good, your channel is a goldmine
Thanks a lot!
Best video ever! keep up
once i tried to sight-sing the sheet, i knew this was inspired by a beethoven's piano minuet (especially those chromatics)
any idea which?
@@skylarlimex i dont remember which number but it's the one with double thirds at the right hand and also in g major
Knew you were singaporean from the accent right away lived there for a while;)
Great video !!!
Very interesting examples!
You are amazing bro!
post more of these u r a genius and i want to learn from you
I was literally just trying to learn how to do this and you make a vid on it
Awesome video. Please make more! Maybe get more complex later on. Whole passages etc.
The previous one was Schumannesque, this one I find somewhat Tchaikovskian.
Cool
i know

Very nice. I prefer the use of figured bass, tho
Merci!!!
Great thank you :)
Your content is fantastic! Keep up the good work. Jesus loves you and loves your musical talent and the way you teach. Have a great day!

1:23 how is that an appogituria, isn't it a passing tone?
