What Instrument(s) do you play?

Although I compose music, I actually do not play any instruments unless you count entering notes into a computer program and hearing them sound back. I'm sure learning to play something of a more organic nature would benefit me as a composer, but I've never been motivated to follow through on growing skilled at producing sound on a normal musical instrument.

So that is why your notation is... Ahem... Quite interesting....

    I mainly play the Piano and French Horn... although occasionally I can be seen singing or squealing into a trumpet! Muahahaaa.

  • Explain what you mean by this. It sounds like a criticism, which would be welcome enough, as I'm always looking to improve my technique.

Basically, have your music more thought through and with a clear idea of the thing and not having voices 'backwards'.

I don't know what you mean by "having voices 'backwards.'" My guess would be that you either mean that I derive harmonies through melody rather than the other way around or that I sometimes use chord regressions. Neither of these are, in my opinion, though, a problem, and I think much of the music I've uploaded to the net is reasonably solid aside from issues with me often using cheap synthesized instruments.
