The Great Conjunction: Jupiter and Saturn 🌌.

other composers: we shall use notes in the fourth octave sparingly and usually only at climactic points. This will have the advantage of keeping the flutist and those listening to the piece alive

Trevor...why?

Is it just me or does the first paragraph make literally no sense? 'Infects' doesn't really have the right connotation for the idea he is trying to convey and what does the second half of that first paragraph even mean?

Does anyone have any advice regarding good microphones to record flute in a studio?

I don't know what kind of things I should be looking for :(

Coming soon: Daniela Mars - Visual album of Classical Music

The first visual album of classical music, linked to nature and featuring the works of living composers.

Hi everyone!  Today I want to invite you to take part in a very special project!  It’s the creation of my first solo album! And it will be a visual album with every track linked to nature. If you can please do help me reach my crowdfunding campaign goal! It would mean the world to me!

Although I have a much bigger following on Instagram, Tumblr is where I started and met so many of you… I still love this platform even if I don’t go post here so often. Thank you all so much for your support! <3

WHAT IS THIS PIECE???

Okay so this excerpt has been stuck in my head for about 3 months now and EVERYONE I have consulted is at a loss, but I know (I know) this exists somewhere and isn’t some bs I came up with myself. Please help me solve this mystery..

Okay so I’ve sketched out the main melody so you’ll see the opening and then I jump to the little tag at the end (it’s what I could remember). Here is what I know:

+ I’m fairly confident it is in D Major (I have a very good tonal memory, but regardless, the intervals will be the same in whatever key the piece is actually in). 

+ The tempo is roughly QN = 80 

+ The melody is in strings (both high and low), and after that ending a trumpet (or some brass voice) picks up the melody from the start again and imitates it. 

So far my search results have been unsuccessful my gut saying it was probably a late-Romantic composer end of the 1800s or very early 1900s. I looked into Elgar, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Holst, Wagner. And then I thought is this some kind of military march-esque work so I looked into Tchaikovsky, Prokofiev, and Rossini. 

I HAVE NO CLUE. If you figure this out let me know ASAP 😭

Apologies for the dodgy lighting/editing again! Here’s some further maths notes from quarantine with info added from class this week + a mini journal I’m starting to log my super-curricular reading in (totally not copying the student mentioned by one of our teachers lol)
