katazumiriParticipantThe problem is that at tango evenings where there are a lot of dancers and limited space, there are rules that it is advisable to follow, for example, dance only forward (the space behind you belongs to other dancers), your feet always remain on the floor. Otherwise, the risk of injury will increase. And here we can see an example of how to dance in a confined space
Unfortunately, not all dancers follow these rules. And Piazzolla’s music “provokes” people to disregard safety rules.
katazumiriParticipantNow let’s see what a choreographed dance to Piazzolla’s music looks like. In this case it is Escualo.
The description under the video says: „… we combine the tango technique with disciplines such as ballet, jazz and we add tricks to make our performance even more attractive „

katazumiriParticipant@The_Bumble_Bard Thank you ☺
People who can or love to dance can also dance to this tune if it suits their preferences.
It’s funny, I recently came across a discussion of people who love to dance tango. They discussed the topic: is it possible to dance to the tango of Astor Piazzolla? The opinions were diametrically opposed. Some were confident that it was possible and necessary. Others believed that Piazzolla only needs to be listened to, and that it is impossible to dance to his music. 🤔
I wouldn’t say that the chord progression was randomly generated. And Dave (the owner of the page) writes:”Following on from my tool to help you find ukulele chords that sound great together. If you’ve got an amazing chord progression that you’d like to contribute, I’m all ears. Drop me an email with the chords in – I’ll give it a play and if I like it, I’ll add it in!”
It was a chord progression that was carefully selected and stored in a database. But progressions are issued randomly from the database, so if you liked something, it’s better to write it down right away, it’s not known when you will see the same progression again. ☺
Dm C Bb A can also be written as i VII VI V
This progression reminded me of something, but I couldn’t remember what exactly.
Now I looked into the „Hooktheory“ and it turned out that this is how „Carol of The Bells“ begins. https://www.hooktheory.com/trends#key=Rel&scale=minor&path=1.7.6.J5

katazumiriParticipantHello everyone!
Here is my attempt with my own song – “Rainy Day”.
The chord progression is from ukulelego:
https://ukulelego.com/ukulele-chord-progressions/#dm-c-bb-a
This can most likely be called a “rondo”: A B A C A.Have a nice day!

katazumiriParticipant@Andrew – Sometimes plans have to be adjusted…
I’m currently having problems with my elbows.
Please no giveaway entry for me this month. When everything returns to normal, I will continue whis chellenges.January 23, 2024 at 10:37 am in reply to: Participate in the January 2024 Member Challenge – You Decide What To Work On! #60341
katazumiriParticipant@The_Bumble_Bard That’s right, in G minor there are 2 flats (B flat and E flat).
Have you noticed that the key signature of “Jmate li vino” also have 1 sharp? 🙂And in the “Schottis fran Lima” there is no E flat in the melody, but it appears in the accompaniment.

katazumiriParticipant@muzikmama I rarely manage to determine the chord progression by ear. If the progression is easy, something like that C – F – G – C, it’s easier for me to “calculate” it. And these two examples for me are “very interesting – but nothing is clear.”
Unfortunately, I’m not familiar with Barry Manilow. Does he have many songs with Gm & D progression? Could you name one?

katazumiriParticipantSchottis fran Lima (Sweden)
Have a nice day!

katazumiriParticipantSo, here are two pieces and there are no other chords except Cm, Gm, D 😉
Pay attention to the key signature. And I’m also interested in what key we are in (from the point of view of music theory).
Jmate li vino (Mazedonien)

Tried and failed: Additional keyboard effects to get the orchestral feel of the original but ruined by noisy keys.
I also encountered this problem.
Does your keyboard have a record button? Look at the photo. Your button may look different, as long as it is somewhere.
I have such a button. When I record a keyboard I do the following:
1. I press the “record” button on the keyboard.
2. I press the “record” button on the smartphone.
3. I’m playing.
4. I finish recording on my smartphone.
5. I finish recording on the keyboard.
The video with a moving image and a terrible clatter of keys is ready.
Then I record another video, where the keyboard plays without me. The picture turns out boring, but the sound is without the clatter of keys.
Then in a video editor I make one video out of two. In the first video I turn off the sound, in the second video I remove the picture.
I would really like to simplify the process, but so far I haven’t come up with anything else.January 3, 2024 at 2:14 pm in reply to: Participate in the January 2024 Member Challenge – You Decide What To Work On! #60106
katazumiriParticipant@The_Bumble_Bard – I see now that I have two pieces (one from Sweden, the other from North Macedonia) whose chord progressions consist of Gm, Cm and D.
I understand that D and D7 are not the same. But they are not too far apart 😉
Will you be interested in what folklore musicians do with it? I can record these two pieces near the end of the month.December 31, 2023 at 10:30 am in reply to: Participate in the January 2024 Member Challenge – You Decide What To Work On! #60078
katazumiriParticipantThere is a dance club in my neighborhood. Sometimes they do „Session Tanzhaus“. This means that anyone who is interested in the dances from Northern Europe, Eastern Europe, the Balkans and Israel can take part. I signed up for January. The list of dances is fixed: 3 sets of 7 pieces each. So I have a stack of 21 pieces in front of me.
1) Execution – I will be going to „Session Tanzhaus“ as a beginner rhythm ukulele. I take tenor ukulele with me. I practice: 1 day – 1 set – 1 hour.
2) Application – „Session Tanzhaus“ will take place on January 12th. I’ll go there and play what I can (and if it doesn’t work out, I can go dancing)
3) Evaluation – I will select 3 pieces out of 21 pieces. Either those that I particularly like or those that I find difficult. I will record these selected pieces and show them here. Hopefully I’ll hit the right chords at the right time.
✨🎉🎉✨ Happy New Year!✨🎉✨🎉✨

katazumiriParticipant@Andrew, thank you so much!
@anyon1 I’m using “VSDC Free Video Editor”
In the video editor you can:
– allocate space for the image on the screen,
– manually move the entire video (with corresponding audio track) relative to the timeline.About synchronization, the more rhythmically you play, the better the end result.
This time I had Matt in my headphones, that is, I was guided by the backing track. Sometimes it’s easier to play if you have a metronome in your headphones. Here you need to experiment what is more convenient for you personally.
