Epic music is simpler than you think
Epic, powerful music is often surprisingly simple. Some of the most epic works of music history are profoundly minimalistic and use composition techniques that could be used by anyone, even beginners.

    Thank you! I vividly remember the first time I heard Robert Browning Overture when I was a young teenager in the 1960s. In 60s language: "It blew my mind! Far out!" I read his autobiography. He paid to have his music engraved, hired a conductor and orchestra and a hall. Thirty minutes after starting rehearsal, the conductor quit saying "This music is unplayable!" In the mid 1950s shortly after Ives' death, Ives' music started getting the recognition it deserved from performances by Stokowski and Bernstein. My music literature teacher said Ives used every musical technique that begins with "poly" and or ends with "ism". Ives often quoted hymn tunes. His favorite was "Columbia, Gem of the Ocean". Thanks for sharing this video.

    Would you consider making a video about Satie? He was active around the same time as Ives and was similarly completely uninterested in contemporary compositional techniques and just did his own thing.

  • @hey.monroe
    @hey.monroe Před 2 měsíci

    2:28 Note to myself: The fifth overtone is not a minor third, that’s a fifth (from the root note!) when he said “minor third” he meant the interval between the fourth and fifth overtone. Minor thirds (talking from the root/diatonic scale) don’t appear initially in the overtone series until the 19th harmonic. And that’s why a minor chord sounds sad, they don’t “exist” in nature. Extra note: the root is also called fundamental and that is because it’s the lowest frequency that it can physically vibrate, not less. Reminder: Hz is the unit measure of how many vibrations occur per second.

    I feel like many orchestral composers before the modern era of computers and synths are the O.G. sound designers! Without realizing what it was, I grew to love this technique in my music production, layering different types of oscillators on a synth, layering subtractive synths with samplers, layering different types of guitars, or layering them altogether to create totally new tonal instruments, layering drums for creative new timbres (how about fattening up a snare drum with a filtered door slam and a soda can being opened?). While that last example is less tonal, the point is, I and many music producers do this layering instinctively because it sounds cool and it's really fun. For many years I had no idea I had been playing around with manipulating the overtone series, albeit in a less informed way than Ravel. Now that I've gotten further into writing orchestral music, I really look forward to putting this knowledge to work for me, approaching orchestral and acoustic instruments like a sound designer! 🤓
