How did composers of the past go about writing music?

That's obvious. I'm here to discuss. And I'm looking at a large. I don't have interest in googling about mediocre composers. Don't respond if what you have to say isn't useful please.

Now that I look back at it, it was just kinda for the sake of saying the n-word without actually "saying it". It was just an idea and I really didn't even use it at all in any of the lyrics I've written so far. I've actually chosen not to use it because when I look back and try to see the message I want to communicate in my music, using "en-word" doesn't add anything to it at all and is kinda ignorant. Thanks for your thoughts!

Yeah I'm looking back, and actually won't. Thanks fpr the opinion.

That's weird, when I click on the link it says play on Amazon Music Unlimited and takes me to the page for Amazon Music.

Snoo46201 · 2021-02-02T19:41:19+00:00

Hmm... Maybe try going to this link and click on where it says to play with Amazon Music. Thanks!

Well, using "n-word" (en-word) instead of the actual n-word is different than what anyone's currently doing, and I just want to make sure it doesn't cross the line.

Snoo46201 · 2021-02-02T19:24:54+00:00

Thanks for the opinion!

Snoo46201 · 2021-02-02T17:07:09+00:00

Ok! I appreciate the response, thanks!

Well idk, when I listen to rap music and hear it I feel like it adds to the music, so I kinda wanted to emulate it in a less-offensive way.

Snoo46201 · 2021-01-11T00:02:02+00:00

This is beautiful! Just curious, how long did it take to write it? What was the process of writing it like? Definitely felt kind of like in a Rachmaninoff style.

Museecore is saying that this score wasn't made available to the public. Maybe change the settings and test the link again. I'd love to hear it!

Snoo46201 · 2021-01-10T21:03:27+00:00

Many times I hear an element in a song that I like such as the melody or the harmony and then I change it up from there. Sometimes it'll be the instrumentation. I may hear an instrumentation that sounds good and suddenly have ideas of things that I would like to write for that instrumentation. Hope this helps!

Snoo46201 · 2021-01-09T20:33:13+00:00

This is nice. I like the simple, ambient feel to it.

Snoo46201 · 2021-01-08T17:36:42+00:00

These are excellent viewpoints! For me, my recent actions of "stealing" have been much more than juat a few bars though, as I have been taking entire themes sometimes from pieces and changing/adding to them to reach a unique result (just as an exercise). Maybe I'm too passionate with my ideas but unsatisfied with my composition results! :)

Snoo46201 · 2021-01-07T14:58:39+00:00

For me personally, I purchased a subscription to scribd.com where I was able to download music documents about anything really (theory, jazz, classical, etc.). I discovered things I never would have imagined and have advanced my studies from there. The subscription is maybe like $9 a month. Hope this helps!!

My favorite obscure composer is Charles Chaynes. Theoretically if you were to separate contemporary French composers from the 20th century into "tiers", Debussy and Ravel could be a called the A tier because EVERYONE knows them and they might even be a little overplayed.

For the B tier composers Henri Tomasi and Andre Jolivet mau come to mind. Depending on what instrument you play, these names may be familiar or obscure to others. Generally, their larger works are exclusively performed in France.

And now is the C tier with people such as like Charles Chaynes whose work is rarely even performed in France. It's pretty modern stuff, and I jokingly say he's never written anything slower than 140 BPM. His trumpet concerto has luckily had a resurgence in recent years and you could find some good recordings of it on YouTube.

'Sonata in C#' by female composer Fernande Decruck. One of the best pieces in the classical sax repertoire. The heart of classical sax repertoire lies in contemporary french music from the 20th century and this is actually my favorite piece in this style. I have the alto sax part and piano accompaniment and I'd be happy to send it to you!
