@jeremydenk Au contraire. I've been trying to forget this melody for thirty years. I would pay to have it removed: Delius - To Be Sung Of A Summer Night on the River (II) - YouTube
It's March, but very much still Winter (projected to be below 20 tomorrow.). Here's a full Winterreise for you from...the previous century. With full text/translations to follow along to: https://t.co/Yfubqpi8Gf Read a little more about it here: https://t.co/Pstfr4E92W
@jeremydenk makes sense. (I'll admit that i'm less sensitized to parallel 5ths than some - which is a way of admitting I don't always notice them when I should!) It's definitely a striking, elemental theme. I tend to find the opening more neutral/mysterious - w/a lot of weird/wild soon after
@jeremydenk not saying I disagree, but can you explain more what makes it weird. That flat-6 to 5 motion seems pretty conventional, analogous to very common Neighbor IV6/4 thing. Obviously, like many openings, the monophonic texture makes things a little vague. Not arguing, just curious...
