Yes, I (and probably most people) agree with that. But what makes a "wrong" note is more subjective then you will admit. (Interesting, the king of subjectivity holds one thing only to an objective standard and it's the one thing that isn't: art, or in this case, notes. The irony.)

 

Thanks for the appreciation, it is the best thing for an artist to know that your work touches the soul of people!

This piece is an arrangement from an album for Piano I published back in 2019 which is inspired by an Italian book (unfortunately has not been translated)

Why I rearranged and recorded?
Well, in my mind this piece was always written for these instruments, but the first version was piano solo.

Now I am part of the Online Graduate Diploma in Film & Game Scoring
https://www.eafa.iamu.edu/filmscoringacademyofeurope/online-graduate-diploma-film-and-game-scoring

and part of this program is the recording of music starting from piano solo to full orchestra.

So I jumped on the occasion and recorded this piece, which sounded even better it was in my mind :D

 

Thank you!
One funny thing of this piece is that entire first minute I got it in a dream... so I woke up in the morning and recorded with my voice, and then the rest came along...

 

I can assure you all the notes played are the ones in the score

 

Indeed, he did a good job
the fewer notes in the piece, the harder to make a great performance

 

yep, shits like that sometimes; good thing you remembered it. i wish you the best on your future film scoring endeavors

 

very pretty music. sounds lush and well-recorded, particularly the first piece. must feel great to see your work made fleshy like this. is it going to be hard to go back to Kontakt?

 

ahahah true, I am already planning to keep on doing 3 / 4 live recordings per year

 

Congratulations for a wonderful composition

 

i love wrong note!

 

Really glad to hear some classical music here, sounds beautiful

 

No such thing as a wrong note.

 

You are labelled as a guest? What you have said makes sense with composer-decided wrong notes. Unfortunately, that does not take into account people like Stravinsky, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, John Cage, Satie and a multitude of now acknowledged great composers who were the subject of criticism from people who said what they wrote bad wrong notes. There is only one reason to fix a note and that is if it was not the note the composer intended.

If the composer intended the notes to be there, even if some people were lacking the ability or desire to try and understand what they were attempting, and thought notes were wrong, does this justify changing them? of course it does not unless the composer is wanting commercial release, and wants to change it.

The only justifiable reason to make every note diatonically correct is in three chord nowhere pop music for the masses. In art, there are no boundaries and a true artist in any art field knows this.

@Marco Di Stefano - wonderful original approaches to composition, I thoroughly enjoyed your creativity.
P.S. I especially enjoyed your use of close voicings and the subtleties in Il talento de Elena

Don't waste your time mate he's not here anymore, thankfully. He's probably under another nick by now, getting ready for the next "mountain troll" attack haha. Probably waiting for the right topic. Perhaps if we ignite a spark with a jazz theme (Foster's everlasting hate), he will magically re-appear.
Which reminds me to go back to listening the OP's work once again. We rarely hear this kind of work here. Props.
Cheers

Agreed. All anyone needs to appreciate it is an ability to enjoy creative music. It's a great surprise and a pleasant one at that.

 

Thanks for listening to my album!
Il Talento di Elena is a very special piece in that album, it describes the emotional fight of the creativity of the character of the book
