I'm happy to share with you a series of improvisations in which I perform a musical heart surgery on myself, exposing the origins of my improvisations, their influences and progression
"Genesis" project (part 1) "The Beast & The Beauty"
A bit about the clip + an important remark
I was improvising for at least 15 minutes before I noticed that I haven't yet turned on the recording device, unfortunately, the deceive ran out of battery only 15 minutes later leaving the two edges of improvisation lost for good.
During my improvisation, you can get a pretty good idea about the general mood that I`m experiencing and to judge accordingly. In that case, one might have more tolerance toward 5 minutes non-stop madness (the beginning of this clip) as well as other completely exaggerated phenomena.
The motifs which will be represented in the clip:
The "Bosa Nova" rhythmic (presented at 8:35, appears fully at 9:58 and 10:23)
The Bass-soprano dialogue 6:05
The Bosa Nova motif:
At the time I was practicing the famous song "The girl from Ipanema" which based on the Bosa Nova rhythm. Basically, that was my first acquaintance with that style. With time the rhythm started to trickle into my subconscious slowly. When I listened to this improvisation for the first time I noticed that there is something unusual about it and that it contains elements that I never heard before in my music. It took me a while to figure out the source of the new musical material but more important and interesting though, was the realization that my musical style is completely flexible and potentially diverse. Now I know that I`m able to consciously plant a foreign musical style and to combine it with my very strong classical foundations. A good example of the first experiment would be (time). In that example, you can hear the merging between the Bosa Nova rhythm and a typical Beethoven`s pattern.
The Bass-soprano dialogue:
In general, this pattern isn't that unique due to the fact that there are many well-known examples from Beethoven`s, Haydn`s, Schubert`s and so on using the same concept, here are a few examples: (time)
Yet, I decided to have you noticed to this pattern due to the unexpected role and scale that it`s about to take in the future`s improvisations.
Was recorded in March 2016, Berlin, Germany.
