I found this great site on composition, Practical Guide to Musical Composition it seems a very useful guide on counterpoint, harmony and orchestration. Probably not that useful for the more advanced of you, but for beginners like me its great, and its FREE! :w00t:

The sacred music of Pink Floyd should not be touched. -Floydman

I think everything has basically been covered. But what about the likes of Vivaldi, he rarely, if ever strays from I V i, chords in his compositions. Is this simple and bad music then.

I don't get nervous when playing to an audience, but I'm actually much more nervous when playing to fellow musicians, cause they know when you make a mistake.

And heres the PDF... Allegro in A.pdf

Oops, forgot to attach the piece :blush: Allegro in A.mid Allegro in A.mus

OK, so I had a bit of time so I wrote this. Its for flute, violin, and cello. I tried to give all the instruments more interesting parts this time, although the flute carries the melody (if there is any):blush: I tried to make something cohesive, but it did not really work out. :angry: I'm not sure how to develop. Please help :sadtears: Anyway, thanks before hand :toothygrin:

Look at the interviewer's moustache, its huge!

For me its Sibelius all the way.

You can start by looking in Youtube, I think they have some good free piano lessons.

Thanks for your comment. You're right it belongs under incomplete section.

Hey, heres my second post. Please, all help would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to start doing anything too big before I get a hand of this composing thing, so I'm posting short little things for now. I decided to use Finale Notepad because its free, but I find it really slow to use any suggestions, for other software. I love using Sibelius but its just way too expensive.

I hope this is a joke...

I never understand Beethoven, I cant stand the symphonies I've heard by him. Can someone give me a suggestion of where I should start.

I made a new MySpace site just for my compositions: MySpace.com - Floydman - NL - Classical - www.myspace.com/floydman1234 I posted an audio file there.
