I have enjoyed your work for several years. My little nephew was transfixed by it when I introduced him to it. It's therapeutic for my mother, who had a stroke. You have done a good thing.
I love these. I must have listened to this piece 100 times and I also performed it in my city symphony. But the visuals shift my attention to different parts and now I hear parts I never ever noticed before.
I've played this myself in a clarinet choir and have enjoyed it ever since. I have always enjoyed your great visuals to go along with great music and all I can say is keep up the excellent work!
I thought I saw this at your "to-don't list" so I never expected you will make a video of Marriage of Figaro. I was surprised I just saw this. What I'm really trying to say is that thank you very much for this video and I really like your video ever since, especially your Mozart (my most favorite composer) videos.
smalin, I have always been a fan of classical music, and looking at the animation has enabled me to appreciate these gems in a very unique and profound way, I have always admired composers such as Mozart, Debussy (to name a few) so very nice work!
This is incredibly fascinating, Mr. Malinowski. As a classical music student who is subjected to score readings on a regular basis (CLEFS ARGH), this really helps me put into perspective not only the registrations that Mozart employs but the way that he layers the same basic theme throughout; one can more easily see the same pattern of colored blocks appearing throughout in each register, and it is a more accessible way of looking at the music. Quite thrilling!
Mozart is my favorite! I love the way he makes the instruments almost dance, like from 1:23 the oboe leads in and the violin takes us on a brisk wonderful stroll on a beautiful day, looking at the wind blow through the trees and the birds flying from tree to tree. Wonderful visuals from his music.
This is so cool!! The animation gives an idea of a visual blue print for the music. I just cannot imagine how Mozart was able to sit down at his desk with paper and quill and create this music.
@JeOfFShAdOwSeEkEr07 Heh-heh, I'd forgotten it was on the "don't" list! I put it on that list before I knew where to license a recording, and before I'd figured out a decent way to synchronize animation to recordings I didn't make myself. Also, I was referring to the whole opera. Yesterday, somebody wrote me to suggest I do the overture, and I thought "yeah, I really should do it" and got down to work.
Ahh... This brings back wonderful memories of the first opera (actually, this is an operetta, but oh well) I ever saw. Which was last year. Now I'm hooked to it, it brings such a thrill to me, which I rarely find in 'only' the music.
I swear, this piece, this magical and otherworldly piece, was at least several generations ahead of its time, far ahead, and OFF THE FUCKING CHARTS it was that far beyond the curve for its time, circa 1785. And when I say way ahead I'm talking possibly 200 years beyond what was already around during that time period 230 years ago, that's how extraordinary and outside of the box this amazing, exhilarating and sublime piece is, one whose timeless appeal and transcendent qualities will resonate forever. And beyond. And Mozart's musical gifts were divine, divine and spectacular, as clearly evidenced by the quirky enthusiasm of this particular piece, along with all the various pieces that work together quite seamlessly, and quite harmoniously, beautifully coordinated and marvelously tied in together as all the different elements and musical aspects were. This musical triumph, to say the least, and further proof that Mozart's musical compositional abilities and skills were easily preternatural, maybe even supernatural, such was the exquisite complexity and multi-layered intricacy along with the amazingly well coordinated musical dynamics of the vast majority of his works, AS all the various and disparate parts invariably played and melded together with this smooth grace, beauty and soothing melodic brilliance, ethereal and inspirational as it all was. Yes, Mozart was a musical God, this fearlessly and brilliantly experimental prodigy whose talents, unearthly and dazzling as they were, blossomed gloriously, and with this sweet, spellbinding magnificence, as this gracefully rollicking, flawlessly acrobatic, seamlessly undulating and beautifully fervent piece sharply demonstrates, astonishingly fresh and original as it sounds over two centuries after its initial premiere in Vienna. AMAZING, AND AMAZINGLY MESMERIZING!!
Thank you so much. You let us hear and see music the same time. So wonderfull. :-) Is there any chance you will do the overture of Mozarts Zauberflóte in future? Bye from the Netherlands
Esta musica fue grande en su època , ahora y siempre ....por que la musica de verdad surge del alma del creador, no esta sudyugada a los generos y modas fugaces pendientes del mercado frio y consumista ...la verdadera musica surge de la vida , del corazon no de ningun genero musical ...Mozart se separo de la corte y eso le hizo componer mejor mùsica que si se hubiera quedado al amparo del monarca ...viva Mozart y toda la grandeza de su mùsica por siempre.
A small number of people would pay for it, it's true. But I'd rather develop the interesting parts of the software (and use it), and as a product, it wouldn't generate enough income to pay somebody else to code, debug, market, support and maintain it.
Awesome, and great tune too! Question: can you make a "beginner viewer's" version that displays and follows just one instrument at a time (say, the violin)?
Hey, I've seen some of your vids and i got to say that is quite incredible all the work you've done. I admire you for that. Any chance that you do marche funebre or ballade 1 of Chopin? Cheers from Paris!
What colours or shapes go with each instrument. I was having a lot of trouble following which color was playing the bassoon line, for instance. At some points, it was the thin purple lines; at other points, the hazy lime green lines.
i really like this video. i have seen some of ur vids including the moonlight sonata which i am working on. btw, what level is claude debussy's clair de lune?
Hmm..I don't know how to take the new animation style. When the bars are a little radiant....is it representing the fortes or some kind of motives? *shrug* o well.. I love the music
OHHHHHHH Thats whwre that came from, qow im oblivious, mind blown, *boom* also Mozart really likes his 4 sixteenth notes then a half, or however long they are
