Movie The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, 2023

Genre Movie

You can omit playing green notes (the second voice).

"Can't Catch Me Now" is composed in a Chopin way. The instrumental part is in the common 4/4 time and the melody is in compound 6/4 time (written as 3/4 for easy sight-reading). I believe the term for such music is hemiola, a vertical hemiola. It is hard to play so you can skip everything in the left hand that you can't play.

Accenting strong beats. Take care to maintain a steady pulse and listen the recording while looking at the score to catch the rhythm. Practice "Can't Catch Me Now" slowly.

To keep listeners attention, the chorus was made to be the biggest part of a song. I colored it blue for your convenience: it is easier to learn a piece of music when you have a mental scheme of it. Play every part differently, as expressively as possible. If some notes are too difficult to play, omit them focusing on emotions instead of sightreading.

"Can't Catch Me Now" is a song with a homophonic arrengement: a repetitive figured bass isn't considered as a counterpoint.

The vocal part is rhythmic but with pitch inflections (slurred notes). All inflected notes should be played very quietly. A predominant vocal style is staccato.

"Can't Catch Me Now" is transcribed in the original key, B Minor, and uses basic/extended major and minor chords Bm D Gmaj7 A Em D F#m. Extended chords help create richer sounds. A chord change marks time and musical structure rather than creates a meaningful harmonic pull.

The melodic line is built on repetitions and has little development. It seems ill-proportioned and unbalanced. A good producer could made it such an interesting track but we have what we have.
