When the famine strikes we might have not the energy to compose. What will be your last note? -
Quinn, Thanks for the review. I do have some ambivalent thoughts at measure 158 too. Originally, I ended the work as you suggested. However, I wanted to bring back a touch of the original sentiment. I'll see if I can make the transition more effective. Undecided at this moment which way to go. By the way I do appreciate your comments on the transparency of the orchestration. It is always difficult to assess the proper balance - you don't the want the score to be either to sparse or too ponderous. Mark -
yes its better here in unfinished section. I was not thinking. -
I thought it was an accomplished piece as it is, light-textured which gives is clarity and transparency. Because of that there are no problems with orchestral balance. You've rendered it well. So if you altered the instrumentation it would only be to suit your taste. For the length of the piece the motivic development seems fine, not overdone in the least. A modern feel while being within reach of most ears, I'd say. The only thing that raised my brow was the last few bars from 158 on didn't quite cohere. I don't know why, possibly because the rhythmic change and sustain hinted at a new episode starting up only to stop. Just my reaction - letting it peter out at bar 157, maybe a tiny rall or an extra rest between each of the last two notes with the Vas, Vcs and DBs would have worked. I played it again stopping it at just that point. Altogether enjoyable to listen to. -

I want to try to compose a song and I would like to do it on the keyboard / piano keyboard (and not through a tracker - this is the only way I know from the Amiga / Protracker times) and I only have USD 100. What equipment should I use? It should cooperate with the computer, which means MIDI interface, am I thinking correctly? Maybe USB has replaced MIDI today? Overall, I would not like to crash into a toy for children, but I would also not like a clear MIDI / USB keyboard-only device, because I think some goodies/features (some faders etc.) can help stimulate creativity. PS. I'm thinking of using Reaper DAW program.
