Performance of the last movement of Haydn's Cello Concerto in D Major. June 2008. I am the cellist in this video. Even though I usually embrace constructive criticism, I have already extensively analysed my errors in this recording and would therefore appreciate it if you could refrain from negative comments this time around. Thanks, and enjoy!But first, for anyone who is interested, here is some background information on the piece:Some fun background info: For some time, music historians were unsure whether or not Haydn actually wrote this concerto; some scholars believed that the composer of the piece was Anton Kraft, Haydn's friend and the world's first cello virtuoso. It was later verified that the piece was, in fact, composed by Haydn, who intended for it to be performed by Kraft, accompanied by an orchestra of only about fourteen people. The concerto, however, was deemed too difficult to be played and as a result, it was not performed until about 180 years after its composition. It is still regarded as the most difficult cello concerto in the repertoire. Haydn himself was known for having a good sense of humour and I find that this movement in particular really exemplifies this. I find it profoundly ironic that one of the only light-hearted concertos written for the instrument is also the most challenging. The contrast between the blithe "maggiore" section and the melodramatic "minore" section borders on comical. The recurring section of the rondo comes back in one of the variations written upside-down. And the jocosity of the recurring theme bears an optimistic message of happiness prevailing.

Again, this is a piece for cello and piano off of Finale MusicMaker. It is in 6/8 and D Minor, yet the tonality switches quite a bit. It has two sections in minor (D and E Minor) and two sections in major (E-flat and F Major). I am only a young cellist and have not taken any formal theory or composition classes. So please dont't expect the Dvorak Concerto hahaha.Please leave comments and suggestions for improvement. [ More Detail ]
Written on composition software and this is simply the playback. So no real performers.......yet......I think it is contemplative and solemn. I think of taking a walk at night to clear my head when I listen to it. Please leave comments and suggestions for improvement. [ More Detail ]

My piano teacher as an assignment had me compose a song over the summer (not for piano, but for flute, oboe, cello, and viola -- here I used a violin). (So, I wrote this, I'm not just directing something somebody else wrote). I proudly present my work, Teetoo. Enjoy!The details: Every 12 notes I had to use 12 differnt notes (for you non-music foks, 12 notes is ALL the notes in an octave). Also, I could not even choose the order the notes came in -- I literally pulled each note out of a bucket to determine the order. All I could do was transpose the sequence. Therefore, there are a lot of dissonances and note clashes, not to mention strange and new intervals. You could also say it's atonal -- there is no tone and there are no common chords. In other words, IT'S WEIRD AND IT'S SUPPOSED TO SOUND THAT WAY. (Alas, I strayed at times from these rules.) I'm not even sure my instrumentalists ever got over the weirdness factor. This piece was theme and variation -- the first thing you'll here is the main theme and the following 7 "movements" (I hesitate to call them that because they're only about 15 measures each) is similar to the theme.About the name: I originally had no name for the piece so I just called it "Twelve Tone." To shorten things up, I started calling it 2T (because both Twelve and Tone start with the letter T so there's 2 Ts in the phrase), and then T2, and finally, Teetoo.This (the band annex at school) wasn't the best place to record it; there are people walking through and announcements and other distractions. This also wasn't the best time we've played some of the sections, and it's the first time all of us had ever gone through the whole song at once together, so perhaps we should have had one more rehearsal. Oh well, you live and learn. Overall though, I'm happy with the final result.I'd be happy to read any constructive criticism or glowing praise (and of course, anything in between).To hear another version of the score that was done by Finale Notepad (there are no distractions and it is more accurate), please visit http://www.logicweave.com/brian/teetoo.wav and feel free to save the file.To see another of my compositions, this one actually follows a normal chord structure, please watch this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVYWXp3G8kEThanks!
