Étude no. 1 in C ('Polyrhythm') | Original Composition

Показать описание
This first study is based on the 5:4 polyrhythm outlined in the first couple measures. I usually associate these types of rhythms with something like prog or math rock, but I wanted to make something more calming with it, and I think it turned out well.

This is perfect, the harmony is interesting, the melodies feel inevitable and fresh, the technique is on point and that polyrhthm is just gorgeous. Really really really good work and something I'm going to be coming back to again and again.

This is so cool! I never knew 5:4 would sound so good.

Always loved 5:3 / 5:4 polyrhythms ever since I heard the Rach prelude in G major. Glad YT suggested your channel, great piece!

Damn dude, that was beautiful. Sometimes I hear touches of Debussy, then Beethoven, then Stephen Foster lol. Just really beautiful harmony accentuating this traveling and sensitive melody. Shining a light to show the chord progression how to navigate. Amazing

Incredible to be able to compose and play this... Polyrythm hard...

Wow very beautiful composition! And great playing too! Btw do you know Scriabin's prelude c major? It uses quintuplets too, although your etude doesn't really sound like that prelude at all

mr sebastien skaf have u ever listened to the octopath soundtrack? I feel like a piano arrangement of Ophilia's theme would be really swag

Cut the first two measures altogether. Totally unnecessary. There's no need to explicitly state the polyrhythm - it's like playing a C major scale in quarter notes before the piece starts (twice!), which would be equally ham-fisted and obvious.
