November 8, 200817 yr first of all, I DIDNT COMPOSE THIS. my friend did. and i just wanna help him make this better, but i have no idea where to start. lol. it sounds kinda.....messed up..... Random #2.mus Random #2.mid
November 8, 200817 yr PDF please? I don't hear much real form in this piece. That's probably the biggest problem. It starts out in a major key, then around :06 random-ness starts to take over, without any memorable or reoccurring themes. I don't even hear a defined melody. Rests are in rather random places, and some notes sound almost placed randomly. Other than that, I can't say much without a score I can open. Sounds to me like he was trying to do some kind of counterpoint exercise with just one voice.
November 8, 200817 yr Put some left hand work to give that form qmwne's talking about through harmony and rhythmic drive. It's fine as is.
November 8, 200817 yr There are some pretty cool (and unexpected) intervals and other moves in here. It isn't bad, it just needs work. Maybe learning some theory would help.
November 8, 200817 yr This is a cool piece. But like the other commenters said, it needs some work. It has basically no sense of direction, and yes, it is VERY random. My guess is that your friend does not have much of an idea of what exatly he's writing down. Keep working on it. I'm sure it would turn out into something great. :)
November 8, 200817 yr The piece needs form and direction -even random passages need coherent direction. The composer needs to learn more theory and perhaps needs to write ideas out on paper before notating them into the computer. The auditor/critic (the rest of us) need a pdf to be able to help you more!
November 8, 200817 yr I don't think it sounds random. It simply sounds incomplete. Actually, it sounds a lot like a single voice of a Bach Preludium or Solo Suite/Partita or so to me, with it's focus on arpeggiated harmonies and scales. Which means of course that it sounds like it's missing at least one more voice (but probably two). The beginning in major confuses me slightly, but I find the part after about 10'' where it modulates to minor very nice, harmonically and melodically. It's definitely something one could make a nice piece out of, with a little work and adding contrapunctual voices. To Blank: The statement "even random passages need coherent direction" confuses me somewhat. What do you mean with that? P.S. Just noticed Qmwne235 already mentioned "counterpoint exercise with just one voice". Yeah. Ask him to add more voices and lets see again!
November 11, 200817 yr It needs some work is all I can tell . Other than that... I'm not experienced to make a more detailed comment.
November 11, 200817 yr oh, jenny. anyways guys, i worked on it, and i added a bit of bass.

November 11, 200817 yr ACTUALLY , you mean its getting Early. For late is only late until 12, after that you reach the AM's, which will get constantly early until you reach 9, then it gets late >.>
November 11, 200817 yr Author Ok maybe ill send my music to chodelkovzart and she can post it up asap... you just cant do anything without me can you. :P jk. post a midi file noob. not everyone can read finale.
November 12, 200817 yr well fine, ill post a midi file any ideas guys? any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated! =D Munkey
November 12, 200817 yr I'll add to this post later, but at a quick listen, I'd say keep up with the filling in; you're headed in a good direction. There are problems to work out, but it's probably better that you fully flesh out your ideas first. I love the soaring lines, such as the first 8 bars and the beginning of the 3rd line. They really do sound lyrical, and I'd enjoy playing them on my cello.
November 12, 200817 yr Oh yay i got it on midi now, i shall now post the midi file and outgrow my noobness! oh chodelkovzart, ur just weird. LOL Random #2.mid
