i composed a nocturne instead of studying

I wrote this simple nocturne in B minor instead this past weekend instead of studying for the most important exam of my life! Was it worth it?
Feel free to try out the sheet music: drive.google.c...

Composing a nocturne so we can sleep better and be more energetic for the exam 👍🏻

[@SebastianChiat-rm9dk]

The midi player doesnt do this justice

[@marzi8456]

i think it sounds pretty good for midi!

[@MrOrangehorseman]

It’s a good thing you didn’t study for that exam, because if you had, we wouldn’t have been able to listen to this beautiful piece.

[@Goodpianist]

Sounds like a mixture of all chopin nocturnes

[@galaxy.9162]

Gotta love the chopin style opening with the single note before the melody comes in

[@uncertainity188]

There are two notes before the 'melody' (it is really apart of the melody). This is, in no way, unique to Chopin. It's something that dates back to Baroque dances and before. There're just pickup notes. Listen to another composer.

[@sgt_yeet]

@@uncertainity188 It is a very Chopin-esc piece though. The romantic chords/progressions, the arpeggio bass line, the development of the theme into a more complicated version of itself, etc

[@galaxy.9162]

@@uncertainity188​​⁠​​⁠Im not discrediting this composer in anyway saying they are copying Chopin I’m simply pointing out cool similarities, like at 1:29 he writes 5 notes (its just a turn but without the symbol) but thats very Chopin-like in his 9/2 or his 28/4, this reminds me of a mix of nocturnes 9/1, 72/1, and 27/2.

[@uncertainity188]

​@@sgt_yeetI really don't see many similarities. The piece is Chopin-esque insofar as it is a romantic piece written for the piano, but beyond that, there are few similarities.

[@uncertainity188]

​@galaxy.9162 My point still stands regardless. It's not Chopin-like because it features basic elements found in basicaly all of classical music preceding and including the romantic period. Also, this turn you are describing, similar to the pickup notes. dates back to the baroque period.

[@jamiepark8372]

I need a live recording of this immediately

[@personthatexists92]

I'll try not to forget to learn this and post a video of it.

[@georgepantzikis7988]

Wow this was actually really good. KZbin compositions like this are usually not great, but this one has genuine musicality and very sensitive phrasing. Good job 👍

[@lucazordancomposer1733]

Very nice nocturne! To me, it feels in 4/4 with the accompaniment in triplets... it's much more common that what you wrote. Not so common to find a 12/8 with so many duplets.

[@robertrusu1958]

yeah, i was gonna say

[@Limitsofclassicalmusic-g8q]

I take it as a decent counting exercice

[@foolpiano]

this sounds like a mix of chopin's op72 in e minor, op 48 in c minor, op37 in g minor, and fantasie impromptu. nice work!

[@muse8850]

holy shit this was way better than I expected for some small channel

[@ralphLB]

i think it was totally worth it. screw studying!!!!!

[@roelweerheijm6635]

That's a nice Chopin pastiche.

[@P_Yllow]

The beginning reminds me of Op. 72 No. 1 and Op. 28 No. 4, two of my most favorite Chopin pieces

[@Tripplecheeseburger]

I would call this piece:“Oh how I hate my love for you „ An absolute and immaculate masterpiece, I‘ve never heard such a heartbreaking main melody, especially when you repeated it the third time, the high notes really hit the spot.

[@sarbou8439]

you would have forgetten what you would have studied, but this piece is endless

[@aurelio3532]

man this is GREAT, 2 mins in and my eyes are already watery! I LOVE the chopin-esque style, you really did great, this deverves to be recorded live

[@leighton-youtube]

feels like what a Schubert nocturne might sound like, very interesting!

[@naphtanaptha]

the figuration of the choral at 4:22 is beautiful. also a very nice nocturne in general! I thought at some point that I feels a tiny bit long but that might be due to the lifeless digital playback (good job by the way on making it sound this good nonetheless).

[@naphtanaptha]

and I liked the contrapuntal additions in repeats as well as your way of varying the themes a lot as well! cool parallel major ending too :)

[@jonnymyong]

​@@naphtanaptha thanks for always being around and for the kind comments. yeah, I need to get better at piano so I can actually play this or get someone to play it on a real piano. noteperformer is a pain.

[@chainmanz7476]

@@jonnymyong i would've tried but i only have 3 years experience. Anyone else willing to learn it?

[@Whatismusic123]

Yes, it is far too long.

[@mikechad27]

[@Enricoooo]

Prob my favourite chord sus13 is also beautiful

[@thomasdobratz8668]

This is absolutely amazing, beautiful work

[@i_am_a_music_maker5212]

this is actually so beautiful

[@DavidThe]

This is something on another level! The dynamics, intervals, and tuplets make this piece so good and special, and I really like it. You did a great job!

[@ellybargmusic]

(1) ok but the title is so real (2) this is such a beautiful piece, great work ♥

[@bakhanghoang7404]

amazing , it always have a little bit dissonance and then the big resolve at the end(7:08 and 7:47) made the song richful, the feeling that the song is fully completed

[@moonlitplants]

this is honestly the most beautiful piano piece i've heard

[@toaster_2815]

This is so well made and beautiful! Good thing you didn't study I'd say

[@mikolajochocki2810]

Absolutely beautiful. Pure talent

[@commentor5479]

this is well-crafted not gonna lie

[@ethanbrowncomposer]

Some nice moments for sure. A theme definitely reminds me of Chopin's e minor. I feel like it could be condensed a little. I love the chord progressions you used for modulation.

[@santiagocaldeira7555]

Very beautiful and well thought. However i think it should be in 4/4 with the left hand jn triplets, it would make more sense.

[@JacquelineLanceTenor]

This is gorgeous!! Like seriously, I love this piece. If this is what happens when you don't study I recommend not studying haha. Instant sub after watching this video.

[@schil_d]

Even if you composed a one movement sonatina it would've been worth it. Music over all forever and ever 100%

[@CollinWilliams-by5cs]

I believe you stumbled upon a lost Chopin nocturne by accident! Its so sweet, yet mysterious. The use of 2:3 rhythms are just beautiful, and the way you embellish on them sounds just like something from the romantic era. Seriously, the midi player doesn't do this piece justice

[@ghostentrlde]

this is incredibly beautiful

[@adrianstasiakbbe]

bro actually did some great job.. sound beautiful to me

[@ensiehsafary7633]

6:21 I really liked this part

[@user-yk6hj9ns6w]

I almost never leave comments, but not this time. Beautiful, very beautiful! Go on! Texture reminds me Field a bit, not Chopin

[@martinfacundoromero]

This is just great 🎉😊❤ lovely nocturne

[@abandonedchannel]

so pretty!! i put this in my playlist

[@syroxfx]

in my opinion that end chords can be a bit short but its ur piece its customizing by ur feels

[@jonnymyong]

yeah I'm still iffy on the end chords, I wanted to call back to the chorale section, but still unsure

[@franekciuk3694]

@@jonnymyongI think they are great, but the register does not give them justice. Try giving them some more bass/ground 🙏

[@syroxfx]

@@franekciuk3694 in my opinion and in my opinion it should bev less chord but if my piece in my opinion and in my opinion

Very pretty nocturne. Great job!!

PLEASE SOMEONE DO THIS AND RECORD IT

[@Hyperkeks]

i wish it would become more viewes! thats for real such a beautifull piece

[@hoomaanghanavati6207]

Nice melody👌

[@user-lianist_luniv]

It was.

[@JarmezGD]

this is really good wow

[@TenorCantusFirmus]

I like it. It reminds me of Chopin, or the earlier Skriabin.

[@akak325]

How do you propose one play bar 23 xD Great piece overall, clear inspiration from Chopin (and maybe a little brahms? Some nice polyphony in there) but not too familiar which is great! Nice work

[@kindanooby2988]

For the right hand, if your hands aren’t big enough, just roll the first chord. The pedal should sustain it for the rest of the bar.

[@IamRyku]

Dude this is amazing.

[@omarabodaka9576]

It is REALLY good ❤

Was wondering if notation would be easier if you changed the time sig in the middle

[@Tomiepsirverh]

Classical music artists: Screw school; I'm gonna compose this magnificent 8 minute piece instead of study for that physics exam because my passion is way more important and I am more likely to please more people by composing such a piece than acing an exam on physics.... :)

Fucking genius

nocturne op 72?

[@syroxfx]

no his composition

[@jonnymyong]

to be honest, i haven't listened to that nocturne before, but the only similarity is the first three notes, which is a very simple phrase and doesn't start on the same note.

[@syroxfx]

@@jonnymyong listen my boi plslis

[@zevelgamer.]

Wow, honestly, you're extremely talented. I'm a composer myself and I can't compose like that. That was very like a bad Chopin nocturne (Which is insanely good). Can you give me some tips?

[@infinityx5510]

idk if i would say of the level of the bad chopin nocturnes probably less

[@infinityx5510]

and really its just a mix of chopins compositions nothing really ingenious here as weve seen before in chopin so its just a mix of them which would equate to something less than chopin because well its not chopin

[@santifpc3749]

buddy couldnt even play his own song lmao

Someone please professionally play this
