Again, Thank you all for following, despite my inconsistent upload schedule here... (College is surprisingly not easy! Who would have guessed?) I have been working on things, but school does come first, and I have quite a lot of it to do every day. Later this week I have another composition ready to post, all I need to do is make a video for it. So stay tuned!
"Old Seasons" is, as the title suggests, will be a four movement piece on each of the four seasons (Not the Vivaldi piece).
The main idea behind it is the concept of the downsides of each season. Everyone has their favorite season, and plenty of pieces have been made on those concepts. But, I thought it would be fun to make a piece that highlighted the less enjoyable moments of each season.
"Forgotten Spring" is based on the feeling of dread one might get from the beginning of a new year. While for most a new year means a "new me", others only see another awful year ahead of them with another wasted gym membership to pile onto the other failed bucket lists. It's a similar feeling to waking up from a sleepless night; exhaustion pulling you downwards, but you get up anyways because you have to. Or maybe it's the dreading of all of those spring allergies that drive you crazy. The key word is dread. Dread is the main idea of the movement.
I'm currently almost finished with summer, and when it's ready I'll post it on here as well. The piece in its entirety has to be done by April 16th, so you'll be seeing more seasons soon! And when I have the whole piece done, I'll see if I can get a good recording of the piece performed live for all of you!
Thanks again for the 100 followers! I didn't really think I'd even get this far, but here we are! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
