Couple of songs if someone could play them for me.

Featured Replies

Hello! I have two songs i recently made and wanted to know if someone could play them and record them for me? Its only two pieces and each one is roughly a page long.

Hey @Gabriel Carlisle,

I would like to ask something first. In the Decorate one, what is the octave sign in the middle mean in b.1-15? I think the octave signs in b.31-34 of Decorate and b.1-5 of Relics and Sorrows unnecessary though.

The octave sign was an indication for the treble clef to play octave lower bc it was mostly off of the clef making it hard to read. I was trying to make it easier for someone to read but if it’s unnecessary or there’s another way to do it I would love to know! I tried using a bass clef as well but it ended up the same issue. As for the other octave signs I put them there as for the same reason. Is there another way to make it easy to read without using to many ledger lines? I actually was going to print these today and take them with me when I go to a session in case I have the chance to showcase any of my pieces. Thanks for letting me know!

It won’t be hard to read without the octave lower sign! The lowest note of the passage will be a G sharp which only needs two ledger lines. It would be better than to use a bass clef or the octave sign now.

Same for the other two instances, it won’t have too many ledger lines even without the octave signs! If he can’t read that, don’t be a pianist then LoL!

This is definitely better! I think the beginning it’s easy to read! However I think at the end you can change the left hand to a treble clef To prevent the high C sharp!

Did you still need these pieces recorded? I know it's been almost two weeks but I have a nice-sounding digital piano and thought I might be able to help 🙂

I have some audio files I made in my daw I’ll post later this evening since it’s Sunday. Yes I’ll still take your recordings if you want! It’s more so to see if the music is readable and the song playable.
