@@johnnyreis6899 hey, I just saw this. my apologies for the delay. we all sing, actually. a few of us can play instruments as well. His grandson (my grandfather) was adept at the piano and the drums, my aunt is a self trained pianinst (played since she was 4), my mother is the first dancer of the family. I, personally, can sing, dance, rap, act, digitally produce/compose, and I mess with a couple instruments.
@@johnnyreis6899 it's mostly his legacy that can really be spoken to, as he passed pretty young and overseas. so, all of the choirs, college programs, prestigious venues/people that cover his music, etc. especially in the south. for me, personally, he recently became a hero of mine. the industry is really tough to break into, but learning that he was one of the first persons of color to join ASCAP (which I also happened to join before I even knew) was impactful and inspiring. his wife as well. Helen. she was THE first graduate of Damrosch Institute of Musical Art (now Julliard) to be a person of color. reading and hearing about some of the things they did in pursuit of their dreams made me realize I could do more in pursuit of mine.
The cadence at 0:33 is so interesting! The G#dim chord seems to suggest a G#dim-A-D cadence (viio7/V-V-I), but he follows it with Bbdim instead. This (at least to my ear) then suggests a Bbdim-Bm deceptive cadence (viio7/vi-vi). But then he fakes me out again and cheekily goes home to D.
I think the "Bbdim" in question is spelled as C#dim/Bb for a good reason. The leading tone resolves to D and the tritone is resolved with the G going to F# (the same voice leading as A7 to D resolution). The E#dim (enharmonic G#dim) beforehand is a common-tone dim7 chord with the tonic (D), but is simultaneously a vii/V. This is actually quite a tonal cadence, though a creative one.
Wonderful music! I thought it was Mongolia at first. But I wonder if there are any Mongolian Compositions for piano solo or Concerto and so on? If I may ask, would you like to post some Mongolian Piano music please? Thank you!😃👍
Yes, the best known i guess it'd be Sambyn Gonchigsumlaa. Most mongolian composers were formed in russian conservatories. You can find throughout youtube works from gonchigsumlaa like both his symphonies and the 24 preludes for piano. Unfortunately material are hard to get, i am afraid i don't have the 24 preludes. I do have scores to one of his other piano works but no recordings so far has been detected anywhere afaik.
I totally misread it as Mongolia, and thought "that's different" before realizing
i’m his great great grandson. looking into his music so as to learn more about where i come from
That's so cool!! Can you tell us any more about his role in your family? Are there other musicians or composers in your family?
Niagara Falls NY. Make hip hop with this in it

A Masterpiece of epic notoriety. A great musician and composer.
That fourth movement is really something
On this gray day, I needed to discover a new work. This is truly beautiful. Thank you.
I love Mammy. so lovely music.
I don’t play piano and find it amazing to watch the music being played. Love the way you phrased it.
