Achieving Drama Through Rhythm and Modulation - Inside the Mind of Beethoven

Step inside the mind of Beethoven as we explore the opening section of Beethoven’s “Waldstein” Piano Sonata, one of the most famous of his middle period works. In particular we explore how rhythm and modulation are used to create drama. Starting with the fast repeated quavers of the opening, this video explains how this drives the energy of the movement in conjunction with the semiquaver runs and other rhythmic features. You will also be taken on Beethoven’s fascinating journey through a panoply of keys, including many unexpected twists and turns. The video offers insight into how this piece works and into how Beethoven writes and also inspires ideas for composers wanting to write with drama and energy. ⬇️Download the files https://drive.google.com/file/d/1L_aG... 🔴 Subscribe for more videos just like this:    / @musicmattersgb   🎵 Become a Music Matters Maestro:    / @musicmattersgb   👕 Merch store:    / @musicmattersgb   🕘 Timestamps 0:00 - Introduction to achieving drama through rhythm and modulation 2:46 - Playing the piece 3:31 - The drama of Beethoven 14:12 - Development of ideas 20:22 - Conclusion 🎓 Learn Music Online with Music Matters Learn music theory, aural tests, composition, sight reading, orchestration and more!
