Bach's Little Fugue & AI Dreaming

Bach's Little Fugue, rendered on a synth. I arranged it, and since I shoot myself in the foot by not getting a paid DAW, I don't have the ability to download MIDI, so I have to recreate it by ear, which is very hard and takes forever, but does wonders for my musical understanding. It uses a simple saw-wave, with each voice played in a different "location", front-left, front-right, rear-left, and rear-right. This allows each voice to be heard while being played with one instrument; instead of the voices being distinct via a difference in timbre, they are distinct by where they are played.

Sor Etude No. 3 Op. 35

From Sor's 24 Exercices très faciles. I imagine this being played by a pirate or something. It sounds very old and somber, but is still fun to play. The purpose of these collections is solely to index all the music that I have learned/made over the years, putting them all in one accessible place.

Ambivalence (Original Composition)

zhlédnutí 63Před měsícem

Ambivalence - uncertainty, or a coexistence of opposing emotions. I wrote this based on the opening Am-add9 chord, with its shimmering dissonance. I then found some more chords with a similar feel to them. The progression I try to keep from being predictable, as though it cant make up its mind where to go...

Adelita (Francisco Tárrega)

Another very popular piece by the very popular composer. The B section takes some practice with those barre chords high up the neck. If you play it fast enough, you cant easily tell most of the notes dont ring clear.

Gymnopédie No. 1

zhlédnutí 71Před 2 měsíci

This is the first of the "Three Gymnopédies", published by Erik Satie in 1888. Satie was a very, very weird guy, inventing ambient music (where songs would consist of a section to be repeated several hundred times), only eating white foods, carrying a hammer for self-defense, collecting umbrellas, and not considering himself a musician, and owning a piano "for storage purposes". Some very nice ...

A Scott's Tune

zhlédnutí 245Před 3 měsíci

This is a Renaissance lute piece published in 1616 in the Jane Pickering Lute Book, either in England or Ireland. This piece (probably from Scotland), sounds completely different, (sometimes unrecognizably so), depending on which source the player pulls from, because these common songs were played and replayed, gradually changing form and mutating as they spread from place to place over decades...

Tombeau Sur la Mort de M. Comte d'Logy

zhlédnutí 85Před 3 měsíci

Tombeau (French for "tomb", a song for a recently deceased), written for the lutanist Comte D'Logy. This is the first "advanced" piece I learned. I learned it all the way back in 2021, and it was way out of my skill level at the time. This piece is very special to me, since how I play it has evolved with me. It is massive, an A and a B section, each played twice. It was originally written for t...

The Lacrimae Pavane

zhlédnutí 331Před 4 měsíci

This was the first intermediate to late intermediate piece I learned. It was very difficult at first, and it was the first piece I learned to play in renaissance lute tuning. I love renaissance counterpoint. The purpose of these collections is solely to index all the music that I have learned/made over the years, putting them all in one easily accessible place.

Greensleeves (Anonymous)

This is a popular English folk song. Most people have heard it, but few realize it's been around since at least 1580. There is a legend that it was written by Henry III for his love Anne Boleyn. This is probably not true, but it's still very pretty and fun to play.

The Day Speaks

Another song of mine, from September 2021. Here, there is more advanced fingerpicking, and a more exiting chord progression. I seem to have written the music past my performing capability, however, since I remember how hard that chord transition was from G to F. Even today, it took me many takes to get an acceptable run through. The purpose of these collections is solely to index all the music ...

Daybreak (Original Composition)

zhlédnutí 281Před 5 měsíci

This is the first guitar song I wrote, back in August 2021. Simple, yet beautiful, I think. Here, I didn't know the theory to what I was doing, so I used several chromatic notes, chords outside of the scale, and even uneven timing, just doing what felt right. The result is a more free composition, with beauty the goal instead of technical perfection. The purpose of these collections is solely t...
