Congratulations Paul! You nailed it. Did something I have not heard here before and can’t do in my playing. It is good you are
a former guitar player, I am so impressed.The dynamics is wonderful - how well you changes between piano pianissimo forte Mezzoforte a.s.o. AND, at the same time you get changes in the timbre too. It feels so good to hear it, can’t get it with my keyboard playing. But nice to know that everything is possible with Ptq Guitar when you have knowledge.
You said ”the expressiveness of the guitar itself is part of the compositional structure”. You succeeded!
I was over the moon when listened.
Thank you Paul.Best wishes,
Stig
Thank you to both you and Carmelo for the nice feedback!
]]>Here I have to say something about how great the Pianoteq classical guitar is. My second prelude is in a modern style, where the expressiveness of the guitar itself is part of the compositional structure. I wasn’t sure how this was going to work with a VST, but I am so impressed with the expressive potential of this guitar. It doesn’t do everything such as percussion sounds, but I developed a expression map for the left hand positions, and there is really quite a difference in tone depending on where you play the note. I also used cc expression for the right hand position (plucking point), vibrato, and used extensive harmonics. You have to do a workaround for the artificial harmonics as they only allow you to do the halfway point, but I pretty much got it to work out as I wanted.
I am a former injured classical guitar player, so it is so great to have this level of control and expressiveness! Thank you Pianoteq!!
A truly beautiful piece!
Pleasant to listen to.
Bravo!
