Just some thoughts I've had about music and life lately. I've actually never done a video like this where it's just me talking to the camera. But I thought I'd share because it's important we don't take for granted the incredible and diverse art that's in the world. Love ya'll ❤️🤘

When I was a freshman in college, I took a composition class that changed my life and everything I knew about music. Every week, we were assigned 3 or more scores to study and had to right a paper on them. It was a lot at the time especially since I was playing in several ensembles, so I locked myself in the library every Sunday to do this and ended up falling in love with studying scores and the music in them.
It really deepened my understanding of orchestration, music theory, form, history, basically everything, so Ive decided to bring it back and share the experience with you all. Some weeks like this one, Ill pick a piece Ive never heard before, other weeks will be familiar favs, no matter what, there's always knowledge to be gained and music to enjoy.
We are starting with Beethoven's String Quartet in C # minor, Op. 131, year 1826. I really enoyed this piece and it shows a more "romantic" and lyrical style to Beethoven I hadn't heard before. When most people listen to Beethoven, it's usually his piano or symphonic works, so this was a nice change. You can def hear how later romantic composers would be influenced by this particular sound and the entire piece has a form that Ive never seen before.
Anyways, I hope you all listen and enjoy! Did you like it? What do you think and what are some other pieces of music I should include for ?

Bringing back my solo loop, jammy jam series. Always a good time just picking a couple chords, setting a nice drum groove, and then just playing whatever comes to your heart. However, soloing is something Ive always struggled with, so hopefully this series gives me the practice Ive been needing.
Was trying to change things up a bit with this one so instead of writing in the usual minor key, I chose an altered scale for the melody, added some congas with the drums, and out came this bad boi. Listen to the whole track at the below! Will also be streaming on spotify in a few days!
