Brahms WICKED harmony /// Capriccio op. 76 no. 2 Analysis 

You nailed it!

Thank you, the recording is from Jane Coop: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EucEx7hYV3U.htmlsi=BOhxVOut4Wl-jrRk

Thank you very much for the kind words, also congratulations on your acceptance to the conservatory!

@@TimondeNood thanks!

Love when the counterpoint enthusiast is awful and completely ignorant at counterpoint

That's so cool! I can relate, such a gem... Thank you for the kind words

3-D intelligence is a perfect descriptor for Brahms!

Looks hard 😁

My pleasure!

Thank you!

Oh yes, good that you spotted it, I even did it wrong on the score example afterwards! Also, thank you for the kind words!

@@TimondeNoodThat’s when I spotted the small mistake; when the score example was played I immediately thought ‘this doesn’t sound like a dominant seven chord, something’s wrong’. Still an amazing video of course, I’m subscribing!

Thank you, yes I didn't notice it even while editing... probably I had already too much on my mind and wasn't paying close attention anymore while rechecking the complete video! Thank you for the sub, more content and compositions soon!

Wonderful!

Hi Pedro, Op.118 no 2 is really one of my big favourites. However, this guy already did quite a good analysis, go check it: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-u0JL85m-r8w.html Regarding the others op 118 no 3 and op 117 no 2, I think we have a similar taste cause these pieces are always in the back of my head :D. So some day probably they will be featured on this channel. For the moment being, I have 4 analysis videos and a lot of compositions to finish, so you won't see them upcoming months. Thank you for the kinds words!

Well I think definitely is not a good word to use for this composition here ;)

Have you listened enough Brahms music? Because you cant simply say something like that about a composer as great as Brahms just because you don't like him, this coming from a person who is not exactly a big fan of Brahms, but I cannot deny his genius.

@@Eeeeeee-j7o you cannot deny his genius because you don't think for yourself and just listen to the words of others and agree with them by default. Brahms is a genius in the eyes of the modern artist, in the eyes of a cultist, in the eyes of someone so ridiculously ignorant to music, that they refuse to accept the fact that music in fact can be poorly composed. Brahms's only contribution to music is making the standards for success ever lower. His pieces are completely incoherent garbage. He writes like an amateur, though maybe not like an amateur of the modern day, who are somehow worse than him. The only thing upholding brahms's genius is a century of dogma. Any competent musician can see past his showmanship and vanity. His pieces have no form, his pieces are filled with contrapunctal errors, his pieces are not music. Just random, occasionally musical noise.

@lolbruh1170 First of all, its so ridiculous to insult anyone when discussing about a composer in a RU-vid video. And then, no, I think that because, unlike you, I have spent time listening and analyzing his music. His first symphony isn't called "Beethoven's 10th" by nothing. Go and listen his 2nd piano concerto, his clarinet sonatas, his intermezzos (for example op76 no4, or op117 no 2). Its undeniable that he was a master of orchestration, and was able to compose music of huge complexity.

@@Eeeeeee-j7o I know his first symphony isn't called "Beethoven's 10th" for nothing. Because it's also completely incompetently composed, just like Beethoven's symphonies. Maybe go listen to some mozart quartet or scriabin's 5th symphony. I know full well of Brahms's "music"(noise). He cannot compose for the life of him. Honestly, the "beethoven's 10th" probably isn't very accurate considering that brahms somehow is so many leaps and bounds worse than that guy. Anyways, instead of receiving your opinion of whether or not brahms is a good composer from someone equally incompetent like Schönberg, use your own ears, be repulsed, and form your own negative opinion of him. The "complexity" in his "music" is literally just adding excessice voices in his counterpoint and excessively thickening every chord to make it as incoherent as possible. His form is completely incoherent, he has only once or twice even composed a semi coherent phrase, letalone a piece of music. He is complete trash.

what u think of my music
