10 levels of d i s s o n a n c e

Another random idea I had.
I do not own any of the videos used in this video.

[@Jartious]

Too many mistakes. I am ashamed that I let so many mistakes slip, such as the spelling of Lisitsa, concerto, and the title of the last clip. I will admit, I did rush this video a bit and was getting impatient as the softwares I was using were acting up. Anyway, here are the sources: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z6enqZ-kf7upjZosi=ME7a-ki0wXZNKOmI kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKbGc5mOpah0bNUsi=VGrxIzIdhC-ET3hW kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqPFeZeCiMeMrcUsi=h-p82X3UaI2PEd7p kzbin.info/www/bejne/e16rp5Rumbd_q7ssi=ILT9_-IZmnE8p0pL kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnmzanSwartrjNksi=gNUoJE1sLM8P5Eok kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZbLfZZtnZ6miLMsi=B_AnYLTMYYSvUyIS kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2a3f41ngt2nlc0si=WRTjuG-YSHMxcxxs kzbin.info/www/bejne/gHeseKJ4bNd-bZIsi=C44LMnuuWSQzFvUM kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmOmnXxtacmDlbs kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y32sqGuvoLigfbcsi=CNKAysQkTJL62hO4 Also, I can't believe I accidentally put an "I'', in concerto, silly me.

Concierto is just a non-english spelling, it’s an acceptable mistake to make

[@IValueSimplicity]

And yet it was still a very successful video either way

[@frederikhutfless]

Last one is not by Concert Creator A.I but played by Kentaro Noda. He deserves credit for even attempting this piece in front of people.

Listen to the Seven Sacred Motets, and then Vieux Noël. He was 12 when he wrote that second piece and it's already his Op58. Consider that if you as the listener aren't getting things that someone able to do that is writing, then it *might* be you, not they, who is missing something?

First time I read Ravel's Valses Nobles et Sentimentales I checked at least 10 times the opening chords just to make sure I was reading well. These chords just make sense when you play the valse in one go, but individually they are absolutely uncanny.

a somewhat dissonant piece i actually enjoy listening to is rzewskis the poeple united will never be defeated

[@Jartious]

I'll check it out!

[@TheSlowPianist]

@@Jartious The cotton mill blues is an especially strong movement.

that piece is one of my favourites at the moment, I recommend Hamelin's recording :)

I was really laughing out loud when I saw that synthesia video of the Finnissy piece😂 Thats usually something you’d associate with an Einaudi piano piece…

[@mrfluffygaming4525]

The more the level goes high, it starts to sound more avant-garde. mostly some pieces that are so dissonant entered the 20th century including ravel and debussy. What a big step

[@user-tk2jy8xr8b]

Feinberg's Sonata started being interesting at the beat drop

[@HypostaticFridge]

And beautiful. Everything he wrote was majestic yet very dissonant

[@ukdavepianoman]

This is tame stuff....Xenakis (e.g. Synaphai) would be several levels about 10. Even Messaien's Turangalila Symphony has some really juicy dischords. Level 10 was more bizarre than anything else. Always happy to see/hear Scriabin PS8.

[@jameshandaja1536]

Is the 4th movement from Chopin sonata Op.35 dissonant too?

[@ecoleplace-des-jeunes6350]

Hi sir I am desperately searching for a rare piece of piano from Howard Goodall. It’s a piano piece (very modern!!) that you will find during the intro of the documentary titled Carl Jung wisdom of the dream. Maybe you have heard of it? Thank you.

[@Jartious]

I'm afraid I I haven't, but I will look into it

[@ThatOneGuyRAR]

You chose the most listenable of the late Scriabin sonatas and the most listenable of Sorabji pieces. Also Rautavaara PC 1 should be a lot lower because although the chords are cluster chords, the voicing and the melody still lies in the outer octave, with the in-between notes more just existing for color. I think a more accurate progression would be Rautavaara PC 1 Scriabin sonata 6 or 7 Maybe something Messiaen, but I can’t tell if this is above or below Sorabji Sorabji Opus Clavicembalisticum/Archimagicun cadenza Finnissy anything

[@greg-warsaw4708]

Take almost any of Keith Jarrett's solo piano improvised concertos, wait the first couple of minutes of deceptively nice music and here you are, generously served with dissonance. He calls that aural sculptures, not adding they feel like made of barbed wire, not white marble.

[@lorenzoromano_original]

This is basically jazz music but it didn't make it

[@DanielSilva-gc4xz]

I think Contrapunctus 11 by Bach on the organ would be kinda high too.

[@maximumentropyofficial9]

[@samuelwongyt]

For the last piece it would be quite interesting to hear it played on piano with poor intonation. I would bet, most ppl would be able to hear the difference. 👽

[@vitanaiq9884]

[@davel4708]

I've often thought an orchestra tuning up could easily be mistaken for a 20th century avant- guard piece. It was a brave but ultimately not enduringly popular movement.

[@choiyatlam2552]

As a rule of thumb as a composer. Dissonance in upper register usually wouldn’t sound that bad. Also, if there are other elements like easily recognizable rhythm, dynamics, activity, etc. It also wouldn’t be that bad. In the world of contemporary music, if you can find predominantly traditional note head, it’s a sign that the piece isn’t that bad. This is as if someone say, they’ll love Maths if it stays with number, but they lost in when English alphabets start to appears.

[@Baldr-rj2ew]

Mozart has composed a quartet subtitled the dissonances. at the end, it's noise. You could quote Boulez.. but modern music is not dissonant but with different scales
