Piano Key A to G
How do composers grab our attention, and maintain it when we're listening to a composition? Simple! These use 'motifs' - short musical hooks, that embed themselves in our ears, repeating and evolving throughout the work, providing familiarity and reassurance as we allow ourselves to be taken on a journey of discovery, hopefully encouraging us to return to the piece again and again. Let's define precisely what we mean by motif, and explore some super famous examples. Finally, just how easy is it to come up with a cool new musical motif? Hmm...

So, today let's explore the wonderful world of Brian Eno, and Ambient Music. Having rediscovered his 1978 masterpiece 'Music for Airports' this week, I thought: why not try to compose a short piano piece in a similar style? We'll discuss what essentially we mean by 'ambient' music, and then take a listen to some musical efforts! For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedI mentioned in a recent podcast about musical snobbery, and so I thought we might explore elements of this topic today. Why do many people consider the Classical genre to be the pinnacle of achievement? Why is pop music thought of less seriously? Is there an argument for a musical hierarchy? In this show, we will compare and contrast different genres, and consider the merits in each case. I will also leave you with a collection of 10 pop records which I rate as examples of high art within the genre. Simon & Garfunkel: Kathy's Song Joni Mitchell: Woman of Heart and Mind Neil Young: Harvest Moon Kate Bush: This Woman's Work Bob Dylan: Don't Think Twice, It's Alright Etta James: I'd Rather Go Blind Fleetwood Mac: Sara George Michael: Cowboys and Angels Elton John: Someone Saved My Life Tonight Dinah Washington: Mad About The Boy For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedFollowing last week’s show looking at the individual musical keys - their moods/colours, and specific composers’ preferences - I thought it followed neatly to begin a series examining a handful of classic pieces, in each Major and Minor pitch class. So, let’s start at the beginning: C Major. I’ve picked three essential compositions that I believe every budding pianist should know, and be able to perform well. Let’s take a brief listen, and then analyze some interesting features from within each score. I hope you enjoy listening to this podcast episode, which actually marks the half-year of the weekly show! You may [probably you will!] disagree with one or more of my choices - if so, please leave me a comment, either on YouTube, or the podcasting platform of your choice.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedAs this podcast is entitled 'Piano Key: A to G' I felt it about time to take a closer look at the individual musical keys . So: are the different pitch classes merely transposed versions of one another; or in fact, do they each possess inate tonal qualities/'colours', and deeper emotional associations? Many notable composers are known to have preferred certain major and minor keys when writing, and it might be interesting to look at some specific examples, and consider why. I will also be examining my original output, to see what if anything it reveals about my own predilections. For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

Greetings piano lovers! In today's podcasting episode, we're going to take a brief look at my compositional process - specifically, how I go about putting together a new solo piano piece. This might be of interest to other composers, who wish to compare and contrast; equally, if you've always wanted to write music but have not yet attempted it, perhaps this will provide the inspiration to start! Next week, we'll have a double episode: a podcast, and also a YouTube visual, in which I will detail how to record and release your music to the wider world. So, please stayed tuned!

As you may be aware, the 007 franchise recently saw creative control pass [from longtime producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G Wilson] over to American behemoth Amazon, via its subsidiary MGM Studios. Now, we won’t be discussing British concerns about what this entails for the titular character; rather, let’s explore elements of another weighty topic: that of musical themes throughout the collection. Specifically, how does the score, through its constituent parts - such as suspenseful progressions, and an instantly recognizable Bond Chord - underpin and weld together the 007 Universe?
