Original 2-piano composition on Korg Kronos

Post by PianoManChuck »

I wrote a 2-piano composition and performed it on the Kronos 88. This demonstrates the amazing purity of the two piano settings I used: "German New Age Grand" on the left, and "Japanese Bright Grand" on the right:

The pianos sound amazing! Will definitely be doing more 2-piano compositions!

Nice one. Had a look at some of the other songs you've put up, good job, keep them coming! I can't wait until mine arrives, whenever that is; here in Europe they are conspicious by their absence.

Thanks.

Mine just came last week... from a pre-order I placed in early May!

Kronos is definitely bad for your health - I think I got a total of 5 hours of sleep in 3 days!

Brilliant! Thanks for sharing :)

Now what you should do is have a tryptic video bringing in a third part with lush strings pad in the last third of the piece! :D :D

NICE!!!

Except that I think the guy on the right is trying to upstage the guy on the left. You really need to have a good talk with yourself. ;)

Seriously though, very nice work. It feels very "Enya" but without all the oceans of reverb.

Ahimsa,
Vlad

Thanks for the positive comments! I had a talk with the guy on the right :lol: He couldn't find his own hat, so he stole it from the guy on the left for that performance :evil: Some people just have no respect :roll:

I like the guy on the right because he smiled at the end. I think the guy on the left needs talking to. :D

The guy on the left has an attitude. The one on the right is much more pleasant... so I only deal with the guy on the right and let HIM deal with the one on the left :lol:

I haven't heard that one before (sounding like "Enya"), but now that you mention it I can see where you'd think that.
