Personal Composition: Etude No.1
on: February 13, 2006, 10:21:05 PM
 Lo everyone!

 I'm taking another attempt at uploading my piece, if your reading this then I must have finaly succeeded!

 Comments welcome about this piece, I havn't composed alot, and don't have alot experience with the piano compared to some, so this may not be the most amazing piece, in terms of structure, details and ideas. But hopefuly it is Classical Compliant atleast, and prevails in some form in it's musicality! Despite it's a performance of my computer, and not me... but I don't have the skill for this, Sorry! ^_^;; But I do wish ;)

 Thanks for taking the time to read, listen and (hopefuly) leaving a comment! ^_^

 - Ruro

PS: Those who downloaded the other version that was temporarily available, maybe you can comment if this is a better direction for the piece? Much appreciated!

Haha! Thanks JoachimF ^_^

I think I will be modifying it further, it moves too fast between sections I think, still comments are welcome! Currently it is all fury, no musicality if you like, it needs... a soul I guess... ::)

Hehe, actually, all the comments I can give would be more or less the same as what you have just commented yourself =)

Good luck in getting that extra bit of soul in (it would be wrong to say it's without any soul at this point). Perhaps a little longer lyrical "interlude" =)


By the way, what program did you use to compose this? :)

I used noteworthy to compose it, and Garriton Personal Orchestra for the sounds.

I have tried several of the main stream Notation softwares out there, Noteworthy is the best imo, but it isn't capable of Nplets, with the exception of Tuplets, but that's the standard one you usually end up using anyway!
