I'm late to this topic but i wanted to chime in anyway because the reason i'm late is the same reason i don't review more works. For me it's lack of energy, i feel like that part of my brain that would analyze and give feedback, or even engage with topics like this, is just too tired and i end up not doing it. I selected a few of the options but that's the main thing. Oh also, an equally big reason is that many (most) of the composers on here are leagues ahead of me so how am i gonna tell them how to improve, y'know?

If there was a way to share your Copyrighted© ...........Midi-File of your Original-Composition© it would then be interesting to hear how it would sound via , This Classified-Alpha/Beta program im currently using for production Trax. As at present its "never been tested primarily for Piano-Solos" even though, free-midi-files are available on line. so it might Be quite a surprise to hear your compostion interpretated on an, Imperial Bösendorfer 97-key grand piano

@bkho Ohh haha thank you, i've got a lot to learn before i'm near someone like mozart, but i appreciate the compliment nonetheless. Totally with you about the dynamics, they went through like four different iterations before i decided to cop out and leave them "up to interperetation". Maybe i'll try again

Really nice! I would just suggest more dynamic markings but otherwise if someone told me this was a lost piece by Mozart found in some dusty music library in Vienna, I'd believe them.

I totally hear you, i think it's the midi piano creating most of those problems. But a performer could take it a few bpm slower, i wouldn't mind

Thankyou Luis I didnt realize that there was a NAME for playing that fast...........so it can be done in Real-Time.

N.I.C.E. ..................And each one no longer than 2mins.

Yes its Good.....................What TEMPO-BPM.......... is that ?

Yes. For my taste it is a bit fast. But it's a personal thing. I think the phrasing is lost a bit and the repeated notes, for example, sound totally percussive.

It's actually quite funny how this person couldn't be bothered to read between the lines and as such your comments' whole point flew right over their head. Really amusing how they have essentially exposed themselves by trying to expose me, like calling them out in private for these immature tactics they're displaying at any point warranted any kind of convincing response. Moreover, playing the victim card by accusing me of "toxic masculinity" or whatever for defending myself and pointing out what they're doing is pretty low, specially coming from someone repeatedly showing this kind of behaviour. Anyway, not much else to be said about this person, by their actions it should be fairly evident by now that they are clearly ill-intentioned and ostensibly incapable of taking criticism or self-reflection. Thank you for your help nontheless, Henry, as I would have otherwise lost my temper and wasted my time and energy all by my own on someone who plainly does not deserve either of those.

I have actually seen that post you have made and I actually thought it was really interesting since it came out from you.

Thankyou ....................................That "Inbox message"..................... was A clear Case of Toxic-Masculinity

There's indeed no need, Pabio was trying to save your face but you just openly disclosed the inbox message yourself by posting. That's really X-C-LENT!

Thankyou for your Inbox-Message............................................But theres no need to worry.

I did play around with your suggestion, changing the triplets to the 16th notes, and yeah, it is so much more smoother now. However, I wanted variation on the second repetition, so I substituted the rhythmical change for harmonic and dynamic. I changed a bit of the notes from the ostinato, and the passage now crescendos a bit to forte then diminuendos to the unchanged pianissimo, just to add contrast. I've also properly modified the repetition at the end of the piece to match the change. Thanks for the suggestion and feedback! Glad you like the piece!

Here is a real performance of the revised version

@Luis Hernández Thanks! Yeah the virtual piano is terrible lol. The speed though, do you mean you think it's a little fast?

Condensing a score in Muse score is definitely not one key stroke, but is not as tedious as you may thought it’s a few more extra steps. I think you just have to go into the format of the score and click on condensed score or something. I’ve done that many times .even the sound mapping is more difficult than condensing a score.

This is a 3 year old topic: I don't think the topic is relevant anymore.

Yes there is..................... You'd have to be blind not to see it in the Comments................But its not in the Majority............but in the Minority. "DENIAL IS NOT JUST A RIVER IN EGYPT"..................................Possibly has a Detrimental-Effect on the Young and Vulnerable. But L.I.F.E......... is a 4 letter word.

The one thing that didn't quite work for me were the initial shifting rhythms in the piano in the opening bars. (Measures 5-7 in the right hand). It felt like the effect you were looking for was more like just a rit. and having everything written out into different triplets didn't quite give as smooth a change in tempo as perhaps you were trying to achieve? I really like this piece very much though! Sterling work! As neither a pianist nor a clarinet player, I can't speak to issues of playability. It seems like it would be a challenge to learn, but well worth the work! Very lovely!

15 Years Later...............Maby a new........ "Top-Banner"........would intensify the sites Identity.

This video explains the book 'for young composers (& their teachers)', which many instrumental teachers have found useful.

It was my composition tutor who made the comment. He's a professional composer. He said MuseScore doesn't have the same granular control as Dorico or Sibelius. One thing that's definitely easier in Dorico, is switching to Film Score format. I gather it can be done at the touch of a button; whereas in MuseScore it's very fiddly. Also creating a condensed score for the conductor can be done with one keystroke in Dorico. Not sure if there's anything that simply can't be done in MuseScore though, as there are often ways of fudging things. I've never tried making an aleatoric score: so maybe that's one problem area?
