5) Composing / Arranging

With Leon Lhoest. 

 Today I had a more or less spontaneous meeting inspired by Sabine Kühlich and Sigrid Paans, who suggested to also think about what I could still add to my study list.

 And we came up with the idea to meet Leon.
The result is, that I will join his class for this semester. Brilliant.

 Today we talked a bit about Bill Evans compositions´. Namely "Time Remembered".

 I made some short notes, the topics will be discussed deeper in the course. 
Notes: "Melodic Driven Harmony".
Deal with harmony the way you deal with melodies.
Josef Demoulin. Messiaen.
Check youtube channels, a lot of information is just out there. Berklee College Online Courses.

No tonal center. 
Ex.: Take two chords. Any. Transpose them anywhere. Several times. Also invert the order of the chords.

 Composition for the duo "Take Me To Nirvana":
Type it to Sibelius. To better check the rhythmic relations.
On top of an established structure imagine an "outside" piano solo, 16th lines. Also compose a version of patterns in this manner. To better understand, what can sound really nice.

Who came to Burma first in 2004 to learn about Burmese music as an music-ethnologist. In 2010 she was working for the Goethe Institute Yangon, organized and created collaborations between Burmese musicians and European musicians. That is how Tim Isfort and Jan Klare first met Thaung Htike .  And that was also how Daphne and Thaung Htike met. Daphne is a very important linking role. She speaks Burmese, she knows the people and their music and she can translate during the process of rehearsing.  Wich is quite important, otherwise sometimes there is no understanding in words and alas no chance to work at musical details. Tim Isfort (former festival manager of "Traumzeit" Duisburg, recently f...

Introduction / State Of The Art______ This artistic research is about how the special combination of the Burmese instrument Pad Waing (21 diatonically tuned, hanging drums; originally translated Pad Waing means „circle“ and „hanging“) and the piano that form a duo, influences my inspiration for a composing process for this ensemble.
