Daniel Hogan - Clarinet Concerto No. 1 - Intermezzo

[PersonneAnnonime]

c'est très beau... malhereusement la qualité de la musique n'est pas idéale... je vous conseille vraiment de trouve un orchestre pour la jouer... car elle mérite d'être jouée!

[19420130]

Very nice, wonderful!

[123pelerin]

this is really, really wonderful. great work. i know you will be a succesful composer and musician in the future!

since you wanted feedback--my personal view is that the "vibrato" or "tremolo" effect caused by the computer-generated music (sounds like an organ) is not totally appropriate...but that's merely my opinion

this could be used in a major feature movie!! in a suspenseful or tragic scene

[ilgattapardo]

Enjoyed the piece immensely! Loved the tune you gave to the clarinet first introduced by the strings: very Rachmaninov. Once heard it's hard to get out of the head! Really good ending too.

Good luck with your composing.

[DarkRaimundo]

Before I went to sleep the other day, I heard this tune in my head, and I thought, Who composed this tune? I've heard it before. Then I remembered that it was you who had composed it. What a great piece of music!

[classicalisdabest]

beautiful and a bit sinister...

fantastic....

[charliesmillton]

sinister? No.....more like tragic.....a bit like Brahms' Tragic overture.

In fact, this could easily be made into some kind of sweeping introduction to a Brucknerian symphony! It can be done, with a few alterations

[classicalisdabest]

haha

hmmm.... well i do find some of it a bit sinister... but tragic is a good word to describe this piece!

[EVELYNEMIL]

Brilliant. Greetings from Miami.

[pcma1970]

Is this mature work, has great density and dramatic! Wonderful well done and caught my attention by the quality and harmony. Congratulations. I hope to connect

[gera1262]

this is so dark!

=D

[Haydnesque09]

Sorry, this computer music bugs me....I just can't enjoy this properly....

Still, I get the gist of what you're saying....your style is very mature for your age....when you're older,you're gonna be a skillful composer!

[cogermax91]

beautiful video with the superb pictures of Monet !!!and the concerto is splendid !!! big bravo

[emilygclarinet]

Very nice!

[DarkRaimundo]

Daniel, this is absolutly amazing! You have a very creative mind! I love dark, reflective music. This piece is just 100% my taste. What inspired you to create such incredible tunes? THis is my favorite piece of your so far! 5*

[earthatic]

I am glad you enjoyed it Reuben! Quite a few of these pictures in the video inspired me as well. I also think that parts of it are a lot like a Funeral March. Rachmaninov and Elgar have inspired my music a lot. I will post the third movement tommorow.

[fozziebear2009]

Hey, I think I prefer this movement to the first; its stronger melodically I think. The only thing I would say is that at 2:19 it seems to go "off key" a little bit in the clarinet part? Other than that..... good job!!! 5*s to you.

[earthatic]

I'm glad that you enjoyed this movement! I agree with what you say about 2:19. I am planning to get rid of that part.

[danielleosimpson]

Actually, at 2:19 it's because there is no harmonic foundation under it that makes it sound "off" - this isn't necessarily "bad" - but you could give that same measure, not to the solo, but 1st vlns with brass chords under swelling and then it would work. The "off" notes are actually right on but ONLY if you hear where it's going two bars later. So if that's annoying, drop it; otherwise, support it with harmony, give it to strings and have soloist do rapid chromatic a bar later. My 2 cents ;)

[theclassicalmusic]

Great! Very beautiful, bravo! I write music too (I'm 15) and I want to become a composer but my parents don't appreciate my choice. they say I have to choose other profession to feed family.

[DarkRaimundo]

I know what how you feel. My parents think that music won't get me anywhere. But it is my pashion. Don't give it up!

[theclassicalmusic]

Thank's!

[danielleosimpson]

You can do both! Do not thing you must make money at composing to be a composer. There are "working" composers and "Artists" composers - some are both. But earn money in an independent way - i.e. something you can do on your own - not 8 to 6 working for someone else. I gave private music lessons and di well after college when people in college asked me "Where are you going to work?" If you want to be a composer, you must compose - but it doesn't have to be the bread & butter (income). Daniel
