Yeah, I do compose only they are not that good, I don't write them down on paper and I just compose as I play which explains the mistakes. And my piano sounds much better. Give me your comments. Not that I can change anything about the music because I have forgotten how to play it.:heh:

At first glance, not counting the bad notes, it seems pretty good to me! Good Job!

Hoo Hoo. Thanks for all the comments. Maybe I will try to write it into a score somehow.

I can't think of a name for it so I just named it crazy tune. An improvisation. Yeah, I finally know the word. I was trying to create a sort of slightly gloomy atmosphere so it sounds slightly atonal. Give me your views.

There's that atonal "Gloomy Atmosphereic" style, and then there's that OMFG "WTF ATMOSPHEREIC" style.

Sorry for being harsh.

I would have played that a lot cleaner, even though it's a piece with atmosphereic feeling to it. I didn't get that gloomy feeling from it, just more of a cliche or typical sound from it.

I would find better chord changes and the right time, and would have at least planned some sort of progression for that, and make up a slightly rememberabal melody of some sort. (Chords can be melody as well-almost anything can, but this had no melody to it whatsoever).

Keep trying.

I edited the mp3 a little... I think it sounds a lot better! I removed the hissing sound, pretty much.

But I really like the improv itself... although, the bass gets really annoying after a while. Pretty good, keep it up!

And Mazeepa, this has a melody. It's just not structured like the Classical style, you're used to.

Sometimes the melody itself is the mood of the song. This is not the case :/

That sounds exactly like some random thing I play on the piano as well. The begining was very nice, but then it started to sound like this 80/90s hair metal song i know (not a bad thing, that's my favorite genre of music!).

I have the same problem as you too. I can play something but then if I try again, I can't remember what I did. Haha..

Mazeppa, it is more 20th century music style. It is not that clear because I don't have proper recording equipment. haha. So maybe it is not "gloomy mood" :P

Oh, I study more than Classical, beleve me, I make atmosphereic things like this a lot-I just don't 'write' them down always, but know them by heart-nonetheless this didn't have any melody I could follow.

Trust me, I study more than Classical. Rock, techno, alternative, classical, modern, impressionests, (some) contemporary, jazz.

I know a lot about different styles and generes which is good for critiszm, composing and playing as well.

There wasn't really much in it for me. Then again, it was an improvisation. ;)

I would suggest that every time you have an Ab you change it to a g#, because in your song that note (which the two names are for the same note) functions as your raised leading tone for Harmonic Minor, so technically it would be a raised G rather than a lowered A. Does that make any sense whatsoever?

Yes, but is bothersome to change it. Anyway, it is the first time I use finale notepad. By the way, I do take music theory.

Well then why did you do it wrong? No offense, but it has nothing to do with Finale Notepad.

Edit: that just sounded too mean...oh well. I'm sorry I'm so OCD.

:\ The first thing I saw was that flat sign. Hoo hoo, I think I am quite blind. Okay, I take your suggestion but I am not going to post an editted version. At least, there is a melody this time.

Haven't posted a while. Sorry for the double posting. My second attempt at finale. I don't know if I improved but well..

I triple posted!!x_x Aghhhhh!

I wanted to make something more Classical style. I don't even know if a person's finger can stretch that wide. Comments would be nice, especially since I don't know what to do for the end, it is suppsoe to sound abrupt but it ends up squashed and so I won't have to triple post. :sweat:

As it is now it is now you are missing the end chord or so it seems. try adding an A minor chord at the end...

The piece makes sense melodically, however, there were some dissonances here and there. I felt that you should have emphasized a little more on harmony since the piece, at times, felt too empty. I think in order for you to make it sound more 'classical' (I don't know whether you mean classical in general or Mozartian classical), you need to listen or play more music of the classical era(s) so you get the 'feel' of it.

I don't know how you pinpoint 'classical', but this is not my definition of it... The piece started out nice, interesting even. As it progressed though, it became less interesting and by the time it ended (quite untimely and rushed, I'd say) it had lost all its quality that the introduction promised.

:yawn: need more practice, but it is okay, I retired from composing music.
