My proper name is Robert, but I go by Bror (old family name). have lived my entire life in a coastal Connecticut town, and I pretty much am self-taught. I'll sit for hours and just play freely, but I also occasionally organize some of my ideas into a different medium (namely digital), and then, I generally have my nose stuck in my laptop until I hit a wall or finish, sometimes days later.

I've been writing music since about seventh grade (mostly marches), but have only really been successful recently. I mostly compose for Brass quintet, String Quartet, and Violin and Euphonium Solos. I consider myself more of a player than a composer, but composing is what I enjoy doing second only to preforming in a field show with Marching Band or Drum Corps.

I play Tenor and Bass Trombone, Euphonium, Cello, Violin, Anglo(diatonic) Concertina, English(chromatic) Concertina, Soprano Ukulele, and sing.

Hi, I'm Tom but i go by "False" (A random username i made up, but u pronounce it fal-say). I played piano for ~5 years, and about Level 7 in ABRSM. I like Baroque music and my favorite composer is Domenico Scarlatti.

I'll just assume Baltimore is in the USA then, since anybody who tends to be so vague are always from the USA, assuming either the entire world knows everything, or the rest of the world doesn't exist *grumble*

Welcome, pearson

Quality of English is important. When posting on YC you are asked to use quality writing, ensuring proper use of spelling and grammar. Abbreviations such as

Thank you for that, Sapphy-Maxy. :P

Hiya, I'm Anna. I attempt to play the guitar, I just started. I have a good voice, though I cannot sing very high. Its not quality then quantity (of notes). :D. I attempt to write songs, and as like most things, I fail. I love the rock/metally genre. Um so hi...

Thank you for that, Sapphy-Maxy. :P

:toothygrin:

I can completely understand if someone messes up and incorrectly spells something, but it drives me crazy when people go out of their way to be sloppy :P

Oh, I know; I'm often tempted to gouge my eyes out after reading some of these posts.

Hi everyone. You can call me kassia or Shay, both are fine with me. I live in California, near San Francisco, and I write music! surprise surprise. I play piano and french horn, can't sing worth a darn, and have lots and lots of musical training but don't remember most of it. I write new age piano stuff and cinematic orchestral stuff. um....what else? I use Sibelius, GarageBand, and Logic and am currently in a heated debate with myself about what new orchestral sampling software to buy, so I'm very excited to check out the forum threads about Miroslav, Garritan, EWQL and Vienna.

Well, I'm just very excited to be here, in general, and get to know all of you and your music and share lots of ideas and opinions.

Hey all.

I'm pretty delighted to have stumbled across these forums.

My names George, or just G for short. I'm from the UK, currently a university student at the age of 20...did some composing back when i was in secondary school, and played piano and violin too, have had a dearth of musicalness related things since then but i'm getting back into it.

Some of the people on this site...you guys are pretty amazing. Good heights to aspire to.

see you around the forums, no doubt !

Hi everyone!

Thank you for having me! This is a cool looking site and am exciting to be part of the forum of youngcomposers.com!
