- Let's test MuseScore 4 and MuseSound with a full orchestra!
I composed an orchestral piece to get common with MuseScore 4 and test its playback quality with MuseSound. The result is pretty good - the composition as well as the playback. Always in mind that MuseScore is totaly free!
Please comment and tell how you like it!
Ok wow. This beats all the other “how does musescore 4 sound like” compositions BY FAR. Really great work!
Wow! Many thanks for this compliment! Composing is a very important hobby for me, so be sure there will be more in future :-)
@@michaellyndee If composing wasn't a very important hobby for you, my self-esteem would be completely obliterated. This is truly amazing work.
Just because you're better than trash, doesn't mean you're not garbage.

@@Whatismusic123 hi
This is genuinely the best thing i've ever heard out of musescore 4, this is incredible
Thanks!
It's always the small artists with the best music
Most composers become famous when they are dead. Honestly i preferre not being famous! 😉
Michael is by no means small artist. It doesn’t matter how many views he gets. Music is beautiful!
Agree
I'm really surprised of all those praising and motivating comments! Many thanks to all of you!
Came for the musescore sounds, stayed for the excellent music!
Many thanks! I'm glad to hear that you like it!
I'm speechless. This is so beautiful, you really have to get this performed by a real orchestra!
Auf jeden Fall!
Why, it already is performed by a real orchestra ! XD Just kidding ofc.
I wish now a days we could hear music like this by modern composers being preformed in concert halls and being much more known to the public!! Great stuff!!
Many thanks! That's good to hear!
These are written by modern composers, they’re just being put into films. This is pretty typical film music
I think they mean making more stuff like this instead of some contemporary music we hear today. After all, some of the music people are creating in our Slavic lands is completely atrocious, I hope the contemporary music in the West is better than it is here.@@Angel33Demon666
@@Angel33Demon666 This is typical 1800s Romantic Era music, it even uses the basic, traditional sonata form as its structure. it's just that modern film music still heavily use Romantic Era composition techniques to this day
If you listen closely, movies have been doing the same thing Ballets have been doing for the past 200 years
"Ride of the Valkyries" or "In the hall of the mountain king" would still fit in a movie today
As a songwriter of many years, I am impressed with this composition because it is carefully written to create separation of the orchestral sections and does what so many are afraid to do - LEAVE OPEN SECTIONS with sparse instrument performances. What great music does is let a piece BREATHE. In my humble opinion, it is often what you LEAVE OUT that makes music great. The listening experience is about accessibility to the subtle changes which can only come from restraint of the composer. I believe music of a symphony should employ a significant number of rests rather than a thunderstorm of dozens of instruments playing all at once. As in a great painting, all the colors don't have to present together to create a wonderful result. We humans can be drawn to appreciate music that respects our need for room to imagine. WELL DONE !
Thank you so much for your praising words!
Magnificent! A stunning composition and probably the best demo of the new muse sounds I've come across. Bravo
Many thanks! I'm glad to hear that.
A remarkable composition, and a perfect showcase of the incredible capabilities of Muse Sounds! Your writing is very complex and evocative - you have an excellent understanding of your craft. The themes you established were developed brilliantly.
Thank you very much!
"Symphonic Fantasy" might just be one of the most amazing pieces of music I have heard in quite a while! What a fantastic way to introduce MuseScore 4 using a composition that displays a full symphonic orchestra. Great job!! :)
Thanks for your praising words! All those comments are really motivating!
@@michaellyndee Bravo sir!
Not only does this show the immense capabilities of free software, it is a beautifully stunning piece of music. I hope my computer can handle the software like yours can!
technically not free as in libre, since the new sound component of MuseScore 4 is proprietary and closed-source, but it's still free as in gratis (and the rest of musescore remains free open-source software), which is still amazing!
This piece is remarkable and this is an amazing representation of MuseScore 4. Very glad I got to come across this. Good work mate.
Thanks! I'm glad that you like it!
I came here to check on MuseScore's sounds, and ended up completely forgeting about it, because the music is so beautiful.
Thanks! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
I could definitely put in a word for my university's orchestra to perform this!!! Is this on musescore's site yet?
1:41 HOLY SHIT i wish i can compose like this the buildup is FRICKING AMAZING that suspense dominant 7th at the end is just WOW
Many thanks! The reaction of the community is really amazing! I'm very glad about this!
G7 while the strings make arpeggi. That's how I understand it
While I'm undecided about the musical ideas, this orchestration is brilliant and imaginative. Excellent display of the power of MuseScore 4!
Thanks! The motives I used are really simple and basic. My intention was to improve my orchestration skills and testing musescore so I used this simple idea and changed it several times for the different parts of this piece.
Utterly gorgeous music.
Many thanks!
Even in using midi since the late 80's I only learned of musecore last year, & was surprised how good it was! I love the euro-classical orchestral sound it replicates, & that you can actually use & see the notation, nothing wrong with still using good old fashioned notation to compose music, & free is free!
This fantasy is an experience! Bravo!
Thank you! I'm glad that you enjoyed it!
Awesome work! Sounds great!
Thanks a lot!
So much fun to hear and watch! Thank you for sharing such a joyous and well-executed composition!
Thank you very much!
This is phenomenal, fantastic job composing this!
Thank you very much!
This is amazing. Wonderful work. The samples are stupendous too!
Thank you!
Truly a fantastic piece, thank you so much for sharing it with the community
Thanks! I'm glad you like it!
I really enjoyed the whole of your composition. Beautiful and brilliant themes and stunning orchestration. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this compliment! I'm glad to hear that you've enjoyed it!
Fantastic display of Musescore's new capabilities. And also a brilliant composition Michael. Well done.
Fantastic writing, and excellent use of the new musesounds. Thanks for this.
Thank you too!
Bro put together one of the best contemporary orchestral pieces I've heard just to test a piece of software
mad respect
Many thanks!
Astonishingly beautiful!
Thanks!
What a piece! And the musesounds fit very nicely with the style!
Thank you for this!
Fantastic work! The composition and orchestration is amazing, and you really use the new soundfonts to the fullest here. Hope you keep writing!
Thanks a lot! Of course I keep writing! The next project is in progress!
This is incredible. Well done man! Really inspirational, really beautiful, and I can hear a whole story that goes along with this. Good job :)
Thanks for commenting and liking! If you like story telling in orchestral music you perhaps have to check out the first three movements of my 1. Symphony on my channel! ;-)
Beautiful piece of work!!
Thank you for that comment!
What a goosebump melody, so emotional!
Many thanks!
Dude... I know you now get these comments every time, but man, this is simply phenomenal. I was hooked up for every single minute of this video. Thank you so much for sharing this piece of art with the world. Incredible.
Every single comment is so motivating! So thank you for that!
Dude this was amazing! Keep up the good work.
Many thanks!
HOLY SHIT this is honestly so freaking impressive. I cant explain how well written it is!! Keep up the good job!! Masterpiece! :D
I love this, as an aspiring composer myself, I wish to one day write a piece half as good as this. Great work!
Haha! Thanks for this!
Amazing work!
absolutely beautiful. amazing
Thank you very much!
Please never stop composing, your music emotionally encapsulates a lot of what I and many others love about music. Really beautiful and energetic writing
Thanks for your comment! I'm glad that you like it! Don't worry about that I could stop composing. The next project is nearly ready!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Many thanks!
Stunning and beautiful!
Thank you for commenting!
Wow, this is probably the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.
Bravo~
Many thanks! Then probably you haven't heard enough or I can compete with the big masters... 🤔😉
The allegro ma non troppo session was such a gorgeous variation of the main theme. I like this composition a lot🔥❤
Thanks! Actually melodies of the different parts are variations of the main theme. I'm glad to hear that you like it!
Amazing, you did a great work here with this fantasy. Musescore 4 sounds nice !
Thanks!
literally mesmerized rn, this is so cool
Many thanks for your compliment!
This sounds so good keep up the amazing work ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks! I'm glad you like this so much!
Great composition! I even added it to my "Rare Classical Treasures" playlist ;-)
The new Musescore sounds are really good. For years I have avoided listening to anything written in Musescore because of its bad sounds that made my ears bleed. This is very different now.
Now, after listening to your piece and several others I think that although the samples are definitely better than NotePerformer, NotePerformer is still more natural, musical, and expressive. I am really looking forward to the new NP4 which is supposed to be released in Q1 2023.
Many thanks! I don't know NotePerformer but maybe I give it a chance after the new release.
@@michaellyndee Lovely music! If you would like to hear Noteperformer in action, come over to my channel and Search "Te Deum". It WILL blow your mind how amazing this plug in transforms Finale Playback... (and the composer is pretty good too! 😉😜)
NotePerformer is great, but MuseScore did a fantastic job with sounds right out of the install. First time I have heard “out of box” software that doesn’t make me cringe hard and run to find a VST or add in so it doesn’t sound like an 8-bit Nintendo! Nice work, Michael! Danke!
Oh my goodness….you are insanely talented. Within the first 10 seconds I could tell musescore 4 was great but man this arrangement wouldn’t let me fast forward. This needs to be performed live! I don’t know who you are but you should be famous. This is spectacular and you should be very proud!
Many thanks! I live performance would be a dream of myself!
this is amazing!!! never before have i heard something this good on musescore!
Thank you very much! I'm glad to hear that!
The beginning of this was incredible!
Holy crap this is so good, sounds really beautiful with it just being midi
Actually it's no midi but soundfonts. I hope musescore will support expression maps in the next version. So maybe the playback can be improved even more.
This is beautiful man!
Like I came here to hear how MuseSound would be, but I absolutely stayed for the music. Did not need to go this hard, but I am so glad you did.
Nice to hear that you like this piece! You're welcome to check out my other works.
Splendid piece !
Many thanks!
I love how this turned out to be! Great job to you. This has inspired me to go back and work on my stuff hehe...
I'm glad that this could motivate others to compose!
Same here!
excellent, beautiful writing. i hear somewhere over the rainbow starting at the 2 minute mark! touching, and a great demo of M4. thank you for sharing!
I really don't know which phrase you mean. Can you explain more detailed?
Love it so far! Wonder how this would be performed in a concert hall! Wonderful work, Michael!
Thank you very much!
Really awesome piece and demo for Musescore4
Thank you for that!
amazing work...greatest demo ever !!
Thank you!
Amazing!
Absolut grandios. Das ist eine umwerfende und beeindruckende Komposition. Mir fehlen die Worte.....Glückwunsch zu Deinem Talent.
Vielen Dank! Schön dass es dir gefällt. Aber Talent alleine reicht halt nicht 🙂
Nice work!
Thanks a lot!
Very beautiful
Many thanks!
Beautiful, thank you
Thanks for commenting!
Impressive piece of work! I hear a real composer at work, in the classical tradition more than the film score style that is often used in this kind of demo's, closer to Brahms than John Williams. Indeed incredible, the results you can get with free software nowadays. I wish I could have had such tools when I was younger and considering becoming a composer...
Thanks for your complement!
einfach nur wow. Das ist unglaublich schön
Danke dir! Schön dass es dir gefällt!
Very enjoyable! I've added this to the Catalogue of Symphonies I'm compiling!
Thank you! I'm honored!
I've been using Musescore since the first version and it has gotten so much better over the years! Great composition btw! The string parts are not crazy. It all seems well thought.
Many thanks!
Beautiful composition! Enjoy the dynamics you put in it. MuseScore 4 is quite a tool for composers and being free tops it off for sure. I prefer to compose in real-time over inserting note by note. I'm sure this was quite a bit of work to put this all together. Congrats!
Many thanks for your comment! Yes, composing for a whole orchestra is very time spending. ;-)
Splendide !
Love this work, hope you continiue making music :)
I definitively will do! ;-)
Impressive! Keep it going!
Thanks!
wirklich stark, klingt sehr schön!
Vielen Dank! Freut mich zu hören!
Quite lovely. Very impressed with the playback, and the engraving is very readable.
Thanks a lot!
Fantastic!
Thanks a lot! I'm glad you like it!
fabulous!
Stunning!
Many thanks!
Searched youtube to see whether one can get good sounds out of musescore. Got my answer. 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for watching and commenting! If you like this and if you are so on fire you should check out my symphony about the four elements!
@@michaellyndee I will, and I also subscribed. :)
At 1:53 , it sounds like "Oogway Ascends", and the melody at 8:49 is very beautiful. This is a gorgeous sounding piece!!
You are not the first who mentioned the similarity to Oogway and I'm very happy to hear that you like my melody.
Wow this is good.
AMAZING!!!
wow beautiful (and muse sounds are amazing)
Many thanks!
You're a master of composing!!!!!
Thanks! I'm glad to hear that!
Really great composition my friend. Last year I had to compose something with MuseScore 3, it was a catastrophe, it's so damn old, I wish I had MuseScore 4 back then
Dang, I started composing with musescore 2 and hearing someone say musescore 3 is old makes me feel old now
Nice work
Thanks! Glad to hear this!
i really do hope that one day someone plays this song because it’s truly impressive
I hope so too! ;-)
amazing !
Thank you!
I am just testing how to use MuseScore4 to record myself playing with the Yamaha digital keyboard. And looking UA-cam videos for some information I found your composition - I just really loved this piece - really touching!
Thanks for watching and liking!
I've been looking for this. It's a bit nutty how good it sounds.
Thank you very much!
The complete sheet is now available on musescore website:

Sehr gelungenes Fantasie! Vor allem die Passaten, die fast schon einer Art der Komik gleichen und dieser etwas film-musikalische Unterton, der genau nicht zu viel ist, ist eine sehr tolle Kombination. Zudem schaffst du es sehr gut, die Epik dem Hörer herüberzubringen. Auch der liebliche Teil bei 0:38 ist fantastisch gelungen. Mach weiter so!!
P.S.: Ich bin mit nicht sicher, wir realistisch der Teil ab 6:27 für die Flöten und Oboen mit dem Atmen sind
Vielen Dank! Schön zu hören!
two words: epic
Thanks a lot!
Amazing! Honestly my only comment as a percussionist would be to change those double stops to go back and forth, it would sound more idiomatic and would be easier to play. Amazing, cinematic sounding score though :)
Thanks for your comment! What exactly do you mean by "double stops"? I'm always glad to learn more details.
@@michaellyndee If I had to guess, I would say probably the timpani part around 8:07.
That's what I guessed but I'm not quite sure about that. I love the double timpani but I know that the timpani sound is not what I would call a good timpani. Maybe in future I will try to fit the sound a bit with the MuseScore EQ.
For me as a non-percussionist the double timpani part should be playable well. When the timpanis are tuned to Ab - C - E - F before beginning this part, then the percussionist has the time of nearly three bars to change the tune from E to Eb. The rest can be played with this tuning so this should be not too difficult in my opinion. But as said, I'm not a percussionist and I would be glad if some more guys of knowledge wrote their comments to this point.
@John Henderson: I don't want to be condescending, so please describe your opinion and suggestion more detailed.
@@michaellyndee Double stop - zwei Töne gleichzeitig, er meint sicher das Intervall nicht synchron sondern mit alternierenden Tönen auszuspielen. Sehe ich übrigens auch so.
Danke für dein Feedback. Interessant - die Töne abwechselnd zu spielen ändert den Soundcharakter völlig. An dieser Stelle präferiere ich tatsächlich die zweistimmige Lösung. Wäre interessant, was wohl die großen Meister dazu gesagt hätten...
I can’t believe the little amount of views and likes. Hope more people get to see this masterpiece!
Thank you! I'm honoured!
Good score. I love MuseScore. All my 3.6 scores, however, came into 4.x with reverb on every instrument, and I have had hit and miss getting batches defined in .json to work in 4.1.1. Still working on it.
The reverb button on each instrument was added in 4.1 and I find it more difficult to get a good sound out of it than in 4.0
I'm as impressed with the composition as this guy seeing such a good reception XD
Thanks! I'm really honored!
You make composing look so easy. I was so happy with my four bar long piece for flute, cello and piano.
My only suggestion is at 9:27 the cellos have dotted crotchets in the 3/4 time. It is easier for most classical musicians to read a crotchet tied to a quaver and then a quaver tied to a crotchet, because it uses the right grouping. Dotted notes, unless with a not to fill the beat, are usually reserved for compound time signatures like 3/8, 6/8, 9/8 etc. I know it technically sounds the same, but if I was a musician receiving this music (which you should absolutely get a real orchestra to play!), I would appreciate little things like that to make the music easier to read.
Thanks for your comment! In most cases I would agree with you. But because every note at this part has the same duration, in my opinion it's easier to read with dotted notes. But this perhaps is just a personal preference of mine.
Dies ist sehr gut!
Vielen Dank!
