An Interpretation - Kashmir

Song:  Kashmir

Performing Artist:  Lucia Micarelli Aurora

Original Group:  Led Zeppelin

(View from 2:33)



Although my interpretation is from the original Kashmir
from Led Zeppelin...

Lucia Micarelli Aurora's fantastic interpretation of Kashmir
greatly inspired me to create my own interpretation.

Her unbridled passion while playing...
the way she keeps time with her whole body...
and her beautiful smile at the end...
WOW...
after seeing her play...
I started on my own interpretation right away.

--------------

In my introduction...
I had borrowed heavily from a movie I had originally seen over 35 years ago.

As it was from memory...
I am not sure of the accuracy of the notes or melody...
or if it was even in the right key.

However...
I do know I had changed it heavily to fit it to my intro of Kashmir.

I had greatly shortened and modified it.

I don't know much music from India...
so, the introduction was borrowed heavily from this particular movie.

My next transcription will be of the song I remembered from this movie...
however, I will have to first find the song so I may accurately transcribe it.

Song:  Kashmir

Group:  Led Zeppelin

I had greatly shortened this song...

and I heavily changed many of the notes...

especially in the Flute I portion.

I was just so inspired to interpret this song.

Perhaps I may be able to get my elder sister to play the Flute II portion...

on the keyboard.

Sometime in the future...

I will practice this interpretation enough to make a video of it...

and place it on YouTube...

so I may include it on this blog.

I have to find a way to...

either synch split screen my playing both parts...

or have someone else play the Flute II portion for a synched split screen video.

Anyways...

I had a lot of fun with this one.

Again...

my next transcription will be of my inspiration for the introduction

of this song.

----------------

Now...

all of the Glissandi except the last one...

are open for interpretation.

You may take from the first note...

the last note...

or from both.

I am taking it from the last note...

and I am running up in one half beat to one whole beat.

There are many accidentals.

Again...

I had heavily modified the original song for this interpretation.

My intro is three lines.

You will recognize the song starting from the fourth line.

The next song...

a transcription...

shouldn't take too long.

The song is short and simple...

but I love the melody.

You may have noticed...

I started a new blog 

(view from the top right margin...My Other Blogs).

It is for my own compositions.

I separated it from this blog as I want to copyright them differently.

Everything on this blog is for free use.

My other blog...

Bass Flute Compositions...

is for all rights reserved for me.

I have yet to compose any of my own music...

but...

a man may dream...

yes?  :)
