oops, updated. the real title is "angels we have heard on high," I always confuse the two

well see I was going for that but after posting this I looked up the TAB and realized I didn't play the right chords for this song...this is really embarrassing I'll try and make sure it doesn't happen again 😢

well, that would make it obvious how terrible my playing is, and that wouldn't do at all

erm - write at the instrument, not at a computer. if you're not experienced, you don't know the symbols that mean the things that sound good (to you). if your ear is your most valuable tool to start, then you kneecap it by putting notation first over your ear. this is less of an issue once you achieve some proficiency in theory - do close score study of music you like and imitate it. if you're not sure what chords to use, borrow some from someone else. maybe wholesale, maybe just a part. open up a freaking Chopin nocturne book or whatever floats your goat and play every single one in order. it teaches you a lot and is usually fun anyway. like for example the descending chromatic lines in this, one of the first pieces I played with such a line was rach2 mvt2. and I always always knew I wanted to write counterpoint so a lot of that as well - relatedly, there are some compositional techniques that theory doesn't encompass, like if you have a theme or melodic idea, how do you develop it? most pieces have only 1 or 2 essential ideas and the real work is spinning it out. start simple & set small goals for yourself e.g. "I will write an ABA waltz and each section will be 8 measures long" and soon you'll be able to add more and more to the scaffolding to get something meaningful. Like the core idea of this piece as well is very simple, I just fleshed it out. And conversely setting hard limits on yourself will get your music written a lot faster. - I started by watching some youtube vids (rip artofcounterpoint) and checking out books at my local bookstore. not sure how effective this will be for everyone but the main point is to get an influx of new and usable ideas from people who actually have written stuff. and most books, even the classical ones, are not super dry, they have a lot of insight to offer. if you're looking for a particular book rec, the one that sticks out in my memory most is harmony & melody by Elie Siegmeister - they will suck at first but at the end of it, you will love some of them

um... I think I have a crush on you 😢👉👈

Yea it sounded like Chopin’s composition.

actually no, I wasn't aware of it at the time I wrote this (2016), although eventually (circa 2020) I would learn a bit of it

WIM if his parents loved him:

@@tylers9006 holy

love borodin, I'm not familiar with prince Igor but I assume it's like the modal mixture in steppes where it's meant to invoke the "oriental"

@@keyofamajor I think he means the rhythmic figure. It's from Polovtsian dance, Danse generale.

@@chechalmers8907 thanks! im not so great at playing the youtube game, is the long and short of it I suppose. hopefully I can strike a happy medium with clickbait I haven't written much lately and am generally slow, but there's a couple old miniatures in the archives I can drag out for the time being, plus some works I never recorded satisfactorily. my harmonic language has evolved significantly since I wrote this 8 years ago though, so no guarantees my recent music is similar. but, this work still makes me smile, which is why I uploaded it

@@keyofamajor well I’ll always be here to check out the channel! Any music will gladly be accepted :)

ah omg sure! i forgot to add it, here it is www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ikabku4pffidmwi3hbv72/neko-atsume-2-bgm.pdf it's a bit difficult, i might make a simplified version as well

bad music for dumb people

​@@keyofamajorbig likeeeee❤❤❤❤ Please why is it so short?

​@@adilivni8688 כתבתי את המוזיקה הזאת לשיעורי בית, אז היא קצר כזה כי למרבה הצער נדרש להגביל את האורך לשש עשרה תיבות 😢

​@@keyofamajoranyway its good😊

Hm, was it? I thought the ones I unlisted were like sans and asgore. I also unlisted the piano vids (lol) but the links are all in the corresponding descs for the curious
