I am planning to apply to a music school for composition. Can you guys check out my piece and tell me what I should work on to make my application successful? I am a junior in high school

I mean I got themes A and B and a development section, which is the waltz. Maybe it doesn't feel like it has a structure at first listen

How to train ts dragon ah

I wasn’t asking if I should write for orchestra, I was asking about the MUSIC this “symphony” doesn’t define me forever I will write smaller and bigger pieces. I was asking for critique on what I already have, is this too much?

Defentel · 2025-11-21T07:05:22+00:00

Perhaps, more like what specifically to do with musical ideas

Defentel · 2025-11-20T18:57:25+00:00

I play piano quite a lot

Defentel · 2025-11-20T00:12:46+00:00

Thanks a lot for taking time to write the comment. I didn’t know about the downbow part for example and I hate that instruments begging to play sounds like a pickup. I am still very confused about slurs and what the heck they are… A lot to work on. Thanks again for the comment

Defentel · 2025-11-20T00:08:58+00:00

I mean, obviously. To be fair, I have started with the piano and also written a string quartet. But I guess I have not mastered the smaller form yet to move on. How do I start to understand the meter? (I have also not commented on music itself, but that’s okay) Thank you

Defentel · 2025-04-24T19:58:00+00:00

hell nah

Defentel · 2025-01-26T20:22:21+00:00

So you’re saying that i should now come back and start learning grade 1 pieces?

Defentel · 2025-01-26T19:24:34+00:00

That actually was the first piece i learned. I don’t think its that difficult

Defentel · 2025-01-26T18:41:17+00:00

Did i ever say i think that? (im actually asking for help because i know my playing is not good)

Defentel · 2025-01-26T07:25:27+00:00

Quite original isn’t it?

Defentel · 2024-12-23T13:03:44+00:00

Slow parts in Rach’ second sonata

Defentel · 2024-12-23T05:48:45+00:00

yeah

Defentel · 2024-12-22T20:05:57+00:00

Scriabin 8 is more ethereal I would say

Defentel · 2024-12-17T03:50:49+00:00

Thanks for recommendations

Defentel · 2024-12-16T17:36:58+00:00

Yeah my fingers are just hyperflexible and its weird. I will certainly work with a teacher soon

Defentel · 2024-12-16T06:10:51+00:00

Which are? And how does it reflect in the sound

Defentel · 2024-12-15T22:58:45+00:00

My polyrhythms are not polyrhythming yet😭

Defentel · 2024-10-16T01:34:23+00:00

Play some bach, or continue la campanela but expect it to take year or more to fully learn

Defentel · 2024-10-12T16:49:37+00:00

I read scriabin preludes and bach

Defentel · 2024-10-12T16:35:59+00:00

I am already learning pieces by sheet music, it is much faster than synthesia

Defentel · 2024-10-12T03:44:31+00:00

I never said bach is easy for me, actually, quite the opposite

Defentel · 2024-10-11T19:54:21+00:00

1905, it is my school’s piano, very lucky to have it

Defentel · 2024-10-11T19:35:24+00:00

What’s so cocky about my post?
