Hey Mr., chill out, it's not that I'm tryin to hide anything! It is of course BUT that combo of the two sequential schemata is common formal pattern in italian and italian inspired trio sonatas. I conclude that the piece you mention is the only example you know that makes use of this combination and that's why you cry "stolen"... baroque music is to some degree generic so I guess claiming "dishonesty" or whatever copyright issues is inappropriate. sheesh

absolutely epic stuff as always. i'm just confused at 10:05 how is measure 4 a v of v? Fdim is V of C? and similar confusion for me in measure 9, how are the notes E, Bb and Db the V of F? actually im confused a lot in all your videos cuz i severely lack fundamental knowledge here but this is one particular section that i was hanging on to an understanding of besides those measures lol
@en-blanc-et-noir
@en-blanc-et-noir 4 күн бұрын
Actually the main indictor for a dominant chord in ‚classical‘ tonal music of the major/minor era is the leading tone: in F Minor, chords that contain e natural are V chords because this e natural virtually prescribes the soprano clause of that key. The V as ‚dominant‘ historically emerged from the clauses. Thus a V/V chord in F Minor is a chord that contains b natural because this is the leading tone to the V. In baroque music there are no other dominant chords in use then the diminished triad (predominantly as 6th chord), dom. 7th including all inversions and the diminished 7th chord (including all its inversions) and the standard dominant triad - and maybe rare incomplete derivations from that. Everybody disagreeing with that concept didn‘t understand it properly LOL

Seriously, I still find it so much easier to memorize as chord progressions. I know that Bach did not conceptualize it like that but for my memory it's easier, I already have clear "chunks" for chord progressions in my mind and memorizing it as a figured bass would take me an eternity. I'm reading the books by Mortensen and Gjerdingen, annotating every musical example with the "forbidden" Roman Numerals 😅 I'm still looking for a convincing argument not to do so 😉
@enricocasin
@enricocasin 6 күн бұрын
@AmeeliaK My argument would be that roman numerals do not explain the music of Bach, Beethoven, Chopin and other composers. You can stack a V to I how many times you want, you wont get a fugue or a symphony out of block chord thinking. An understanding of figured bass, rule of the octave, counterpoint, partimento, schema finally made the apparent godly talent of these composers into something understandable and trainable to some extent.

These types of pieces form the bread and butter of Bach's first WTC. Although the style predates Bach (see J. C. Fischer, whose music largely inspired the WTC), his thorough exploration of the genre ties him to the figuration prelude more than any other composer of his time, I'd argue. I enjoyed your previous video on this topic and this one as well. Great video!

Besides Kuhnau, "figuration prelude" comes at least also from Vivaldi/Torelli. RV 813, Andante, c. 1705-1710. It's not technically a "prelude", but it's just repeating figures in the same style as a Bach prelude. Copied by JS Bach as BWV 979, Andante.

Ich hätte da noch eine Käpt'nsquestion zum Refrain von "Wir sind die Champignons": kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoW8e6Wvg8x_fpo auf dem letzten Ton von "on and on..." des Prechorus wird die Domina um einen Ganzton nach oben verschoben und die Tonart damit "aufgefrischt". Refrain dann einen Ganzton höher als die Strophe. Kennst Du dafür Vorbilder aus der Klassik? Freddy hat sich ja gern bedient...
