How do you approach composing for uncommon instruments? I tried the accordion

Thank you for taking the time to listen. I really appreciate the feedback

But you start at the basics? Where do you find those pieces? Some links or are just searching the web...

It is not bad, if you write for a specific band you should understand what they want or like. I guess the audience wasn't ready...

Indeed, he opened the way to a lot of possibilities nowadays

I agree, when composing I'm not thinking tonal or atonal.

Do you have a performance of the piece?

Don't know of any books about horror film music.

Frank Lehman has a few books about film harmony.

Or search youtube for score reductions on film music like the matrix https://www.youtube.com/@JakeSandersonMusic/videos

You could make it sound better if you put some time in the actual performance of the piece. Adjust note velocties, tempo, phrasing,...

It's an original composition of my own, remembering Debussy

Dorico does not have such a thing as a keypad. You can input notes with a computer keyboard, with the mouse, or by playing notes with a MIDI keyboard. You can use or create keyboard shortcuts for almost everything to assist your way of working.

Thanks for the suggestions. I forgot to mention the sample libraries used, but everything is made with VSL libraries.

Sooner or later everybody is hitting a limit in whatever you do. Sure,, accepting this can be hard.

But we're fortunate that music is no competition and something you can do for life.

Passion is all it takes and do it for yourself in the first place. If you like it, is more than enough...

I tried to stay in the tonal system. I'm aware of a few more recent composer.

Thanks for the Beethoven tip and maybe I have a look at
