An interesting juxtaposition this week: the recall of a duo of Haydn pieces I hadn't played for 32 years; and the simultaneous inability to remember why I walked into the kitchen! Thus was set in motion a podcast about memorizing your piano music, and the benefits you might reap... which interestingly extend beyond the bounds of mere concert performance.

A good deal of my time this week was spent messing around with a choral work by Sir Edward Elgar. It is a beautiful, delicate setting of the Eucharistic hymn ‘Ave Verum Corpus’ - in Latin, ‘Hail True Body’ - and, since I had finally managed to transcribe and record the piece, I thought it might be an ideal opportunity to look at the subject of piano transcriptions . Specifically, what are they? Why might we be interested in attempting them? And how would you go about making one in the first place?

Following on neatly from last week’s discussion around musical motifs, let’s explore the related, but subtly different world, of the ostinato. What exactly is it? Can we recall some famous examples? What is its purpose, both for the composer and listener? And, crucially, can we come up with some piano improvisations, incorporating first melodic and then rhythmic ostinati?!

How do composers grab our attention, and maintain it when we're listening to a composition? Simple! These use 'motifs' - short musical hooks, that embed themselves in our ears, repeating and evolving throughout the work, providing familiarity and reassurance as we allow ourselves to be taken on a journey of discovery, hopefully encouraging us to return to the piece again and again. Let's define precisely what we mean by motif, and explore some super famous examples. Finally, just how easy is it to come up with a cool new musical motif? Hmm...

Following on from last week's podcast concerning 'aleatoric' or chance music, I wanted to continue with the improv. So, today let's explore the wonderful world of Brian Eno, and Ambient Music. Having rediscovered his 1978 masterpiece 'Music for Airports' this week, I thought: why not try to compose a short piano piece in a similar style? We'll discuss what essentially we mean by 'ambient' music, and then take a listen to some musical efforts! For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…
Something slightly different this week, as I found myself in a creative vacuum: why not allow random chance to intervene? Like many composers before, let's take a dice roll to determine various musical parameters, within which I will attempt to improvise a short piano piece!

I mentioned in a recent podcast about musical snobbery, and so I thought we might explore elements of this topic today. Why do many people consider the Classical genre to be the pinnacle of achievement? Why is pop music thought of less seriously? Is there an argument for a musical hierarchy? In this show, we will compare and contrast different genres, and consider the merits in each case. I will also leave you with a collection of 10 pop records which I rate as examples of high art within the genre. Simon & Garfunkel: Kathy's Song Joni Mitchell: Woman of Heart and Mind Neil Young: Harvest Moon Kate Bush: This Woman's Work Bob Dylan: Don't Think Twice, It's Alright Etta James: I'd Rather Go Blind Fleetwood Mac: Sara George Michael: Cowboys and Angels Elton John: Someone Saved My Life Tonight Dinah Washington: Mad About The Boy For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

Following the Victory in Europe [VE] Day celebrations this week, I thought it timely to prepare a podcast show on the topic of wartime music. So, I have chosen three of my favourite songs - all patriotic staples - which continue to move us to this day, some 80 years later. We'll listen to some musical snippets, recall poignant lyrics, and notice an unusual feature connecting all three pieces. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

Something a little different this week: I thought we’d explore some psychological elements of the musical experience - specifically what makes us return to our first encounter with a work? How does this initial exposure cement our ongoing impressions of the piece; and are we missing out creatively because of this unconscious bias? [I failed to mention in the podcast, but the player of the Rachmaninov Piano Concerto No.3 was Bernd Glemser!] For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

Following last week’s show looking at the individual musical keys - their moods/colours, and specific composers’ preferences - I thought it followed neatly to begin a series examining a handful of classic pieces, in each Major and Minor pitch class. So, let’s start at the beginning: C Major. I’ve picked three essential compositions that I believe every budding pianist should know, and be able to perform well. Let’s take a brief listen, and then analyze some interesting features from within each score. I hope you enjoy listening to this podcast episode, which actually marks the half-year of the weekly show! You may [probably you will!] disagree with one or more of my choices - if so, please leave me a comment, either on YouTube, or the podcasting platform of your choice. Which three would you have chosen? For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

As this podcast is entitled 'Piano Key: A to G' I felt it about time to take a closer look at the individual musical keys . So: are the different pitch classes merely transposed versions of one another; or in fact, do they each possess inate tonal qualities/'colours', and deeper emotional associations? Many notable composers are known to have preferred certain major and minor keys when writing, and it might be interesting to look at some specific examples, and consider why. I will also be examining my original output, to see what if anything it reveals about my own predilections. For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…

Something slightly different this week! Following questions from a podcast listener, I thought I'd put together an episode outlining how you might go about recording and releasing your own piano music with the wider world. Now, it soon became apparent that this would work better as a YouTube visual, rather than simply an audio file. Hence, I am encouraging you to head over to William Haviland Piano on the video site, where you can watch the full length version of this discussion. Any questions about what I'm explaining, please leave a comment, or contact me via my website whaviland.com For more information: whaviland.com/podcast Happy piano playing/learning!…
Greetings piano lovers! In today's podcasting episode, we're going to take a brief look at my compositional process - specifically, how I go about putting together a new solo piano piece. This might be of interest to other composers, who wish to compare and contrast; equally, if you've always wanted to write music but have not yet attempted it, perhaps this will provide the inspiration to start! Next week, we'll have a double episode: a podcast, and also a YouTube visual, in which I will detail how to record and release your music to the wider world. So, please stayed tuned!
