Some pieces of music can be quite difficult to classify for
Writing Music purposes. I find many pieces I love and would love to listen to
while writing, but which I can’t quite piece together the mood or story of. And
sometimes I stumble upon a piece of music that’s so atmospheric I instantly
know exactly what sort of scene it would suit. This week’s Writing Music is
just such a piece. Part of the Pack is
an amazing instrumental piece from composer Adrian Von Zeigler that is just
perfect for writing to.
This piece has an overwhelmingly Celtic feel to it. It’s
wild and dance-like, mixed with a couple of quieter moments, and with the sound
of wolves howling woven throughout. To me, this piece would suit a rowdy
country dance or celebration. I especially find it reminding me of a wild faery
dance, drawing poor mortals into their eternal dance party. Other than that, it
could also suit an urgent or excited horse ride, especially through a dark wood
at night.

What do you think this
piece suits? What have you been listening to this week? Recommend some music to
me!

ReplyDeleteAlso, I feel like I tag you for a lot of things, and maybe you're too busy for this, but I made up a little Valentine's Day tag and tagged you, if you feel like doing that. :) http://rachelssecretscribblings.blogspot.ca/2015/02/valentines-day-tag.html
Celtic music is so beautiful, isn't it? Thanks for stopping to listen.
DeleteAhhh Celtic music. Gosh, I love it.
ReplyDeleteRecently I've been listening to a lot of 2 Cellos and the Piano guys, since those sort of pieces fit well with the book I'm writing.
Though I've never seen the show, this rendition of the Attack on Titan theme is my favorite right now.

The Piano Guys are amazing, aren't they? I don't think I've seen 2 Cellos yet though. I shall have to look them up at once. Ooh, I like Taylor Davis but I'm not familiar with this cover of hers. It's pretty awesome though. Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteOh my! I adore Celtic music. It really fits the theme of what I'm writing at the moment as well. I love this piece so much. It reminds me kind of a rowdy fantasy country folk dance. Maybe for a special festival, all the ordinary folk celebrating. Oh perfect.
ReplyDeleteI can totally see that scene in my head. I'm so glad that this piece happened to suit your writing just at this moment. It's so awesome when you find that piece that's just right, isn't it?
