How good are you at timing...


Schumann

Recommended Posts

I create piece... I enjoy piece, reason for creating it

However I come to learn the piece is not timed correctly

Maybe this has to do with my mood then, when made

But now I should wait for this forte, this chord, it sounds more professional

It is catchier

I like it better, it matches my scheme

I know composers, old ones, famous ones, they are great, timing is wack...

Who has perfect timing? depends on the ear that belongs to the perceiver

Interpretation. Even prediction.

Timing this could made room for this portion of the piece. Getting rid of this measure, does it slide the whole piece back one measure, or does it make a silent hole in piece?

How do you perceive time? Will a blank measure have a rest or a note, or both? Where will that be, and will that be the beginning middle or end? Of what, the piece, the phrase, your life, or someone else's?

A moment is really part of everything no? Not separate? What about two moments? What happens when one moment comes early... you have two moments happening simultaneously? Or does the first go... What happens to it? Change, destruction, division? Realization...

Do you mean "Lengths of time"? "Rhythms"? "Tempos"?

I explain in the OP. It is located on the page one before this one. I don't need rules. They're limited, knowledge isn't. I want thoughts, if anyone can think, they are one step ahead.

Who do you mean by they??

By they I mean by your original reference they.

I am pretty sure we saw the OP.. and after seeing that we were still confused.

Perhaps this discussion would work out if you tried again to explain what you are talking about.

Is it timing as in where to switch to different sections of a piece or how long to make the intro/coda or whatever? That is what I got from the OP.. but then again I'm not really sure.

For your information, good sir...

Nobody understands your original post. This is because it is incoherent babbling of an existential sort.

We don't really care about existentialism.

If you want an answer to your question, I suggest you a.) meditate, or b.) ask God.

If you don't believe in God, then you'd better learn how to meditate fast.

Oh, and by the way...

You are not making any sence... what do you mean by timing?

Why didn't I explain this well enough for you? I mention ridding of measures and how they are interpreted, waiting to use a chord or dynamic. None of this is sticking? Don't you write music, and do you not see it linearly on the paper you write? Music is existential, so that must be one key you don't have.

and what does timing have to do with this... Unless you are writing music in real time, timing shouldnt be an issue. You should already know where all the pieces of your music should lie and measures shouldnt just be moving on there own.

It seems like we are not writing the same kind of music as you.

Ah another merry go round thread! Thrilling!!

This is not a merry-go-round thread if someone could refer with context. Not everyone who wants to give an opinion about something should speak, if they can't express themselves in the first place. Catch what I am trying to say?

Measures don't move? Okay now you are starting to think. You are explaining yourself with context. This is good.

My measures move, because when I hear a measure it is in front of me, and when it passes, it is somewhere else. It is reforming or possibly dying off. It could be recycled by the composer, or remade/combined.

My timing comes from my internal music player.

What sounds "right" to me is what I've been trained to have sound right. Listening to endless hours of music has trained me to recognize points where changes need to occur. A loss of a measure can't happen because measures are constructed within this player of mine.

Now, this only works on the micro-musical level. At the structural level, the timing has come through practice and theory..

I always understood the OP..

I don't see the reason for ASKING it in the first place.
