Full Transcript

This music composition lesson explores one idea for writing a sequence based on a pattern in the bass line. In this case, the bass alternates falling thirds with rising seconds to generate a melodic pattern at the bottom of the texture, with an implied chord scheme that serves the sequence well. These kind of structures are useful for composers working in any genre and are especially for building bridges or other connections between musical ideas. ⬇️Download the files https://drive.google.com/file/d/1spn1TWuD2OJ9HKvU0Z13k10QXwkdN3sJ/view?usp=sharing 🔴 Subscribe for more videos just like this: http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg?sub_confirmation=1 🎵 Become a Music Matters Maestro: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/join 👕 Merch store: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8yI8P7Zi3yYTsypera-IQg/store 🕘 Timestamps 0:00 - Introduction to bass sequence using falling thirds 0:26 - What is a sequence in music? 3:08 - Thinking about length 5:27 - The third second sequence 7:39 - Chord progression 9:24 - Adding interest 11:57 - Playing the plain version 12:06 - Playing the elaborated version 13:10 - Conclusion 🎓 Learn Music Online with Music Matters Learn music theory, aural tests, composition, sight reading, orchestration and more!
