Well, doesn't music kind of have to be a language? Because, for example, we speak and write in english and I am writing down words right now. To be able to read the words I wrote, I have to know how to read and write in english, right? And we read and write down music, so doesn't that make it a language?? And if this is true, I can totally see why people would call it a universal language. Because we mostly speak english in the US and...japanese in Japan. But if anyone in the world wanted to read music, wouldn't they would be able to??

Ok, so I started playing piano about 10 years ago when my mom found a teacher. However, when my teacher taught me anything about theory I would just space out until she told me to play something on the piano. Now I REALLY wish i hadnt done that, but back then i didn't care at all. Right now I know all the basic stuff like time signatures and things like that. But when it comes to figuring out which notes go where and what kinds of notes go together im lost. Because of this its hard for me to write down music that ive composed. Is there anything you would suggest for me to do? Should I go out and get some basic theory books? Where should I start? Thanks for any help!

Hi, I just added a link to an mp3 file. I'd make a MIDI, but I don't have a program to do it. Are there any programs you would recommend?? Thanks

Thanks!:D

Hello everyone! I discovered this forum today, so I thought I'd post one of my compostions! It is definitely not complete, so the ending is kind of abrupt. But please tell me what you think! :) Here's the mp3... The Storm - eSnips, share anything The Storm 1.MUS
