Good day,I would like to share Breaking of waves, a short piano piece in a free atonal style. As the title states, it should symbolize the breaking of waves on a shore. This is my first music post…Continue

"A great piece of work. You have modeled your journey very well - with lovely music - and it is a pity I cannot fully retrace it as I have never been to the place. Some parts feel as if your view impressions mix up with emotions and, perhaps, hopes…"
"Hi Geert,
listening to this is really an experience. It feels as if you hear the same melody again and again in one voice and simultaneously in different voices. The melody itself impresses by its pure beauty. Very interesting. The only odd thing I…"
"Hi William,
it sounded very enjoyable and you catch the flowing of the carousel well in my opinion.
Kind regards,
Jan"
"Fits well with some ideas I have for the next piece, so I will try to join."
"Hi Saul,
it is beautiful. I think the strings and the piano harmonize well together.
Kind regards,
Jan"
"Hi Ramon,
wow this was unexpected, it is a modern piece. I really would like to hear the voice, since without it it sounds like a flute / woodwind(?). It is good work.
Kind regards,
Jan"
"Hello Kjell,
I think you are right with the harpsichord though I like the piano version too. Yes, there is not much dynamic in the piece, probably none. Interesting observation, didn't see that. I learned something from your comment. Thank you…"
"Hello Jan Paul,
nice and interesting again! The piece seems to follow its concept with iron consequence. And again the tone seems to fit the attitude of Hesses poems very well.
Kind regards,
Jan"
"Well done. Enjoyable piece. Feels it suits the harpsichord better since there is no dynamic in the piece.
Cheers,
Kjell"
"Hi Saul,
thank you for your assessment and the info! The "model" for this piece was Clementi op. 36 No. 5. A brilliant work.
Cheers,
Jan"
"Hello Dane,
thanks again to hear from you. Yes I think you are right, I now started to study the piece a little bit and it is indeed not so easy with all the trills.
I will practice the piece and possibly this will lead to changes in the…"
"Hello Disconnectica,
I like the overall sound and rhythm, and it feels as if you have put a lot of effort into this piece. But honestly speaking, the melodic line is not interesting enough yet. Perhaps you can add some variation here - it sounds a…"
"This is very silent, almoust like a reverie. Very good after a long hard day ;)
Thanks for sharing.
Jan"
"Hello Jon,
it sounds sappy, powerful, and I enjoyed listening to it. A fresh impression to hear the horn as solo instrument. It may be underestimated ;)
Kind regards,
Jan"
"Hi Michael,
thank you for your answer. Well ... I do not know too much about the technical stuff - this is just a musescore 3 product. Of course it would be much better to have it performed and recorded professionally but up to now I lack the skill…"
