Everything sounds awefull in midi 8)
-
Would you rather me post the sheet?
-
Do you have any experience in form analysis? I didn't listen to the whole thing, because of the midi sound, but it still sounds like just random ideas that doesn't quite go together.
Since you clearly don't go for the contemporary style of composing, you'll need to have phrases.
What happens now is a bunch of notes that goes on, and finishes, and a new bunch that finishes somewhere else. Those two needs to be connected. I'd suggest you'd analyse Mozart-sonatas, and see how he builds up phrases. And don't say "Yeah, well, I don't want to do like Mozart, I want to do like Wagner or Strauss, or Mahler!!" because that wont work. Start with something simple, and once you get that, you move on.

That's some good advice, I'll definitely go look really hard at some Mozart. I would agree with the non flow. In a lot of sections

whoa, this is cool. where did the inspiration for the name "bynum" come from? you should play it and post a recording

Well yuh see, it's my last name!
I would do that, but I wrote some of it away from the keyboard so some of it is very awkward because I wasn't thinking. I also havnt looked at it in months.
I've written two more ballades and I will record the 4th. The third is long winded and wayyyyy to hard. It's about 15 minutes to play in totality and I am only really proud of probably 9 of those minutes. Oh well, when I get some free time I'll record the 2 sonatas I've written along with the 4th ballade. At the moment, audition rep is taking first prioriy
-
how long have you seem playing o . O you seem to be at a really high level for a teenager, are you one of those "musical prodigies", not to stereotype, but yea i guess that is kinda stereotypical.
-
I've been playing for about 2.5 years now.
I have a rough draft of a recording of me doing the fourth ballade. It still needs a ton of work. But it's getting there
I named it ballade 3 on YouTube because I hardly count the third one I wrote as something to be proud of

Like I said, it needs a ton of work. But the basic idea is there

hooooooooooooooooooooooolllyyyy crap you have some serious talent/dedication, then!! 2.5 years to get where it normally takes 10+ years, + an apparently innate aptitude for composition/transcription, damn props

haha thanks man!
Its my passion in life and has always been there for me.
Transcriptions... I have made a solo piano transcription of all 24 paganini caprices
and if you check the audition room i put up bach cello suit variations
-
I agree in some respects with what pianoman53 has written.
I heard lovely moments, but I missed the flow that makes a good story.
Work on small, simple forms! But work on making them structurally strong!
Composition is the most difficult of all musical tasks. Be patient, and start small! I recommend composing small pieces for the left hand alone for a little while.
