This piece is just what I needed tonight, thank you

Oh damn! Looking at this again, in my haste I forgot the rule about tonal second voice entry under certain conditions. Oh well, maybe I'll fix it later. Mea culpa! Master Fux, take a ruler to my knuckles!

@Kvothe ha well you probably could do a thesis on Romeo and Juliet.

I have finally finished! https://www.youngcomposers.com/t48750/2025-christmas-event-submission-march-of-the-gingerbread/#comment-1186762789

This is my piece for the Christmas Music Event (+ my first time writing anything marching band-esque). There are some changes in the sheet music since Noteflight doesn't have celestas and I didn't really know what to do for the drum notes but aside from that, everything is as it should be. Have fun listening!

No problem. I felt like read so much that I could do thesis on sonata form. LOL. I wanted to thesis on Romeo-Juliet overture.

Okay then, thank you!

No .. there are no rules! You can submit as many pieces as you want. @J. Lee Graham - yes, please submit a link to your piece in this thread. Thanks for your participation!

Try to write a piece of music, with a maximum of 2 notes playing at the same time. I have done this before. My fourth Sonata, C Dur Sonata is written this way. Try arpeggios, fast notes, anything works. No other rules. Have fun!

Just literally...

I've only recently started this, but I would love to hear suggetions 😄 nutcracker inspired.pdf nutcracker inspired.mp3

Hi @PeterthePapercomPoser I have made it viewable for anyone!

Ooh, I just dropped a short Christmas-y piece in with Piano/Keyboard works. I'll mark it as my submission if that's okay, or do I need to post it here?

Here's a little Christmas card for y'all I found from a few years ago. It's probably not the best fugue ever written, not by a long shot, but it's fun. Composed: December 22 - 24, 2017 at Austin Scoring: Keyboard solo Style: Baroque Duration: 2:09

And also a last movement Finale with an Introduction de Capo.

https://musescore.com/user/96214813/scores/30134846. This is a five movement piece of music, consisting of 880 bars and 20 minutes of purre, Eb Major, Piano Music. It has an Introduction, A Concerto for Solo Piano (Some parts inspired by Prokofiev (Cadenza), Hummel (Last movement Coda Structure and stuff in the Coda), Beethoven (Some themes and grandness/mightiness/sensationalness), and Mozart (Some parts of the slow movement in the Concerto)), The Concerto ends in a plagal cadence, because the people once thought that the chord progression I-V-IV-I is holy, like the sky, because of the Jump between that compared to an authentic cadence. Enjoy, please, I beg you, and don't kill me for writing minor keyed parts.

@Kvothe Thanks very much for listening, and your analysis! I'm glad you liked how things progressed. And thanks for your compliments on the development. I always sweat blood on developments, they never come to me easily.

Nice piece! Some nice use of a 'rare' dissonance. It is definitely inspiring, your effort, that you took to make a 'beethoven symphony 9' sized orchestral work. Choir, Orchestra...

I am done with my music! https://musescore.com/user/96214813/scores/30134846

I think that the person behind the AI should receive a conduct. This. Anyways, here is my music. It is not quite done yet. I am going back to China, so I can't do it, because my laptop is also getting repaired. Refer to my status update.

This piece is really a masterpiece in my opinion, which achieves both structural rigor and sensuous timbral imagination. It's a marvelous creation of the late, mature Boulez, an antidote to those who view him as an avatar of avant-garde academicism (sorry for the alliteration, I couldn't help it). This is the Boulez who was formed by the thinking of Mallarme and Paul Klee: a real theorist of musical color, whose best music effortlessly fluctuates between delicate restraint and violent explosion. Sur Incises also has a kind of intimacy and sensitivity to resonance: his chosen instrumentation functions as a "deconstruction" of the piano timbre, not in order to invalidate it, but in order to more fully reveal what lies beneath its surface. So there's almost a connection to spectralism. Any other Pierre Boulez fans out there?

Is there a maximum amount of submissions we can make?

I think I'll stick with harmonic fullness for as of right now. I find that starting with 6ths between my S and T voices allows for an open, broader sound. Which allows the parts to sound big. I've actually noticed that I rarely make edits after writing the initials SATB and transposing for the different instruments. Any edits I make are between the 4 parts and just making those sound as good as possible. First system of the piece I'm working on to show how I write step by step.

Reporting them meant nothing. Their Suno prompt is still in the event and the staff didn't even really offer an explanation for why they did a 180 in a matter of minutes. You have to have principles and actually stand by them or else your principles don't mean ѕhіt. I am against AI-generated music and I will not spend precious, authentic composing hours to participate in anything alongside charlatans.
