I have this weird way to remember pitches. I have these "standard" pieces of music practically imprinted into my head (like Vivaldi's Spring.) To think of what G sharp sounds like for example, I would go through Spring until I reach G sharp. It works pretty well until I start transposing in my mind...

Things I could improve on: 1. Patience- I start a piece, but never can sit around long enough to finish it. 2. Counterpoint- It sounds.... awkward. And chunky. 3. Notating- I hear music in my head, but I don't know how to write it down well. 4. Flexibility- I used to be all paranoid about clashing notes. I freaked out over V7 chords.... :musicwhistle: Not anymore, though. I'm a little more flexible with my harmony now...... 5. Showing others my work- Being a perfectionist, I'm not very happy with my works, and practically never show them. Except to my composition teacher. I should start sharing more to improve my music.

I used to listen to the CDs of my Suzuki books when I was younger on a tape. I have no idea how I fell asleep with the noise. These days, I swear I hear a Bach concerto in my head ( From Book 7). And for dreams, I had one where I was playing the cello like a pro (I do not play cello) in a orchestra. I do remember some of the score because of my photographic memory (yay!) I think it's a new piece, not a previously composed one. Also, I had a dream set to music. I only remember the first few bars, though.
