DAY 19 – 올해의 음악

(Image: A split image. The left side is abstract, the right side features a musical note-like design.)

Originally,I enjoyed Rosé’s solo songs and covers,and I listened to a lot of the playlists she sang on ‘The Sea I Longed For’ in the past.

Her husky voice on the Howard Stern Show, playing guitar and singing the WONDERWALL mashup version, was so cool.

I think the stage really showed what she pursues as an artist.

ALLDAY PROJECT, ONE MORE TIME

This song has the YG vibe I used to really love.

I also like the melody and the catchy hook… I missed this feeling. ㅎㅎ

W. Bolcom, Graceful Ghost Rag

(Image of sheet music or a ghostly figure playing the piano would be ideal here)

William Bolcom’s graceful Ghost Rag is a captivating piece that beautifully blends the styles of ragtime and classical music. Composed in 1977, it’s a standout example of Bolcom’s “New Ragtime” – a revival and reimagining of the early 20th-century piano genre.

Unlike the purely syncopated rhythms of conventional ragtime composers like Scott Joplin, Graceful Ghost Rag incorporates more complex harmonies and a wider range of dynamics. This gives the piece a haunting, almost melancholic quality, hinted at in its title.The “ghostly” aspect isn’t about being frightening, but rather evokes a sense of nostalgia and faded elegance.

The piece is technically demanding, requiring a skilled pianist to navigate its intricate passages and maintain the delicate balance between the ragtime energy and the lyrical, flowing melodies. It’s a piece that rewards careful listening,revealing layers of musicality with each repetition.

Graceful Ghost Rag isn’t just a technical showcase; it’s a genuinely expressive work. It paints a vivid picture – perhaps of a grand ballroom long abandoned, or a memory of a bygone era. It’s a testament to Bolcom’s ability to honor the past while forging a unique and compelling musical voice.
