March 25, 200719 yr A piece I wrote in 2005, I think. I remember feeling really special for having written something almost entirely in 7/8. I don't know if it's that good though. Feedback is definitely appreciated. I had forgotten that I stored this on another midi storage site, so here is an older version. I wrote this with Finale and have since made many minor adjustments on Sibelius, so ignore whatever discrepancies you may notice with the sound and score. http://download-sheet-music.com/Original/Seven-Eight-1135278526.mid
March 25, 200719 yr I ALMOST danced to this. Which is almost always a good thing. But the two fast parts I feel were a bit too ramble-y. The constant eight notes got a bit boring after a bit. It SOUNDED good, but got boring. And some of the voices in there are gross. Like the random bells. I loves the 7/8 though =DDDDD
March 26, 200719 yr yeah id also like a midi. this sounds like it might appeal to my odd time fetish.
April 23, 200718 yr Well I didn't really get into the middle part. I could tell what you were going for, but instead of enjoying the middle I was just anxious to return to the more upbeat stuff. Pretty good job with the song though. The time doesn't feel awkward and an average listener would never notice. I think that is what you should strive to do when writing a song in odd time. The timpanis at the end feel a little out of place though. I think I'd either have them play less beats, or have them play different notes. The ending was kind of abrupt too. I did really like the peice though (aside from the middle) I don't want to sound too critical.
