Just two patterns form the backbone of every great melody ever written. 📚 Many of the ideas in this video come from my favorite music book of all time: Analyzing Classical Form by William Caplin In this video we explore The Period, the first (and more commonly known) of this pair of forms that composer shave been using to write music for centuries. I use these patterns every day in my work as a film composer, and hopefully once you get the basic forms under your belt you'll find all the benefits of using them too. We'll take a look at what the Period form is, how it's structured, and listen to an example by analyzing 'Cyrus the Scholar' from Yasunori Nishikawa's score to Octopath the end we'll look at how easy it is to take the form and use it to create a new melody! 🥳 Check out my new course Pillars of Composition! 🚀 LINKS 🏛 My new composition course ➔ 📫 Join my newsletter for updates and more ➔ 🎼 Early access, exclusive content and more on Patreon ➔ ☕️ Buy me a coffee ➔ 🎓 Private lessons ➔ _____________________________________ FOR MUSICIANS 🎶 ScoreClub - *OUTSTANDING* composition courses including “Orchestrating the Line” which completely changed my approach to writing music.
