I'm a 9th grade band geek, so naturally my life revolves around music. I always wanted to write my own song in hopes that our director would let us perform it (and if not the high school band, even the middle school band). Several days ago I decide to give it a go. With a copy of Sibelius, only used to write drumline cadences until now, and almost no knowledge of the capablities of specific instruments, I started.

Since most of my musical experience is in percussion, I started off composing a simple bell melody, later changing this to flute, and adding a vibe and bell solo to the beginning. This is my first composition ever, so it's not that great. Also, this is only a work in progress; it's only 36 seconds long as of now.

Any advice or help will be appreciated -- positive or negative. Maybe even some links to particular threads or websites that can be of some use, perhaps.

Hmm... Anything wrong with a simple bump?

I've added more, but I'm a bit stumped on where to go now. Any help?

Well, it's really starting to take better shape now... More of a march, now, really.

Any comments or suggestions yet?
