I want to be a classical composer, but when the professor gave us a sample of contemporary art music (written by people in their 30s) it was all noise to me. Except for the one apparently lambasted as neo-Romantic, which was only mostly noise. They were interesting and sometimes enthralling noises, but if I have to write like that to pique the critics' interests, I think I'd rather not bother.

Is there a place in the classical world for my compositions? Should I just stick to performing?
>>
>>65272518
>Is there a place in the classical world for my compositions?
Post them.

No, you don't have to write atonal shit to be a real composer. But you can hear in Mahler's or Scriabin's music how well can atonalism be used as kind of a complement to tonalism. Resigning from it will make you look like a retard, because it opens your music up to enourmous ammount of possibilities.

Depends. You could do something like Wolfgang Rihm and not make it totally unlistenable. There are people in all different kinds of classical music.
>>
>>65272615
I can hear in Mahler's and Scriabin's music how well atonalism can sound. I can't really hear that in contemporary music, however, or how well tonalism can sound for that matter. (Perhaps it was just the samples my professor chose.)

>and everything about it was planned to be easy to write

>>
>>65272518
Just write the music you want to write/listen to. If you enjoy it, so will others.
Its good to stay up to date on what's happening in contemporary art music, but you take or leave what you want. Personally I've been enjoying writing really simple clear tonal stuff, although it is fun to push the limits of chromaticism and dissonance even within that frame.

You can't really rush composition, you either put in hours and hours every day, and write lots of music, or you dont. If you put in the hours year after year, you will start to improve.

5. Most of the time you have to be or will be in a semi-trance condition to get such results - a condition when the conscious mind is in temporary abeyance and the subconscious mind, which is part of Omnipotence, that the inspiration comes; and to be careful, however, not to lose consciousness, otherwise the ideas will fade away. That is the way Mozart composed, and when asked what the process was with him while composing, he replied: "The process with me is like a vivid dream". He then went on and described how ideas, clothed in the proper musical setting, streamed down upon him. God and His Omnipotence, His awe-inspiring grandeur, His glory, and above all his closeness to you are things that should be pondered on just before commencing to compose. It is most stimulating and inspiring process to think along those lines before entering that trance-like state in which inspirations come.

6. The dream-like state is like entering a trance-like condition - hovering between being asleep and awake; you are still conscious but right on the border of losing consciousness, and it is at such moments that inspired ideas come. Then it is of the utmost importance to put the ideas down on paper immediately. Then they are fixed and cannot escape; and when you look as them again, they conjure up that same mood that gave them birth. This is a very important law. Themes that occur this way usually are the ones that will endure.
>>
>>65275035
>Then they are fixed and cannot escape; and when you look as them again, they conjure up that same mood that gave them birth.
This doesn't happen, though! Even when I manage to get the themes on paper before I forget them, when I look at them the next day I forget how they were supposed to sound.
>>

I'll never understand how masochistic does one have to be to use sheet music instead of midi in 2016 ad.
>>
>>65275215
midi is even worse. The sounds made by the computer replace the sounds in my head and kill the theme even as it is being written down. I only ever use midi at the end, when it's finalized already.
>>
>>65275252
> The sounds made by the computer replace the sounds in my head and kill the theme even as it is being written down
just download a high quality sample library.
>>
>>65275187
record them you dumbass. either record yourself playing on a MIDI controller for future reference, or sing/whistle/hum the melody into a recording device, even your phone it is easiest.

You have to capture inspiration when it strikes, dont want to waste it. The faster you can capture ideas the better, so use the method that works best for you. Then you can go back later and actually write the piece based on the melodic ideas of your inspiration.

Usually playing a piece over and over is the way to work out the exact rhythm and harmony, then you write it down. this process is very slow though, but it produces better music.
>>
>>65275384
>record yourself playing on a MIDI controller for future reference

>4. Never begin working the out of a composition before the whole thing has taken definite form as an outline either on paper or in your head. When ideas come to you, go for a walk, then you will discover that the thing you thought was a complete thought, was actually only the beginning of one.

Posting here because I'm at my wit's end.
There's this solo piano piece I learned to play several years back but I have no idea who the composer is or what the name was. All I remember is that there was one part where you have to play b flat several times (in a row), followed by a b natural and an a natural. Any ideas?

His 27/2 is the best I've heard. No one else revealed the structure as well as the passion in the right hand.

On the other hand he does accelerate a bit too much in some places like 3:26 and the harmonic dialogue between the hands is lost for a bit, he does this a few times in the beginning too where he even gobbles some notes. Also, his left hand is sloppy in general. But still, way better than any of those 5 to 6 minute interpretations where literally nothing comes through.

Why do people claim that's very hard to get into Schoenberg? I just finished listening to the first two chamber symphonies and one piano and orchestra concerto. It's nice and very dynamic, it's impossible to be bored with this music.

A stodgy autismal over-conservative music professor and fugue-fetishist was teaching a class on Johann Sebastian Bach, known lardass.

”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship the Baroque era and accept that it was the most productive period in the history of Western art music, even more than Viennese Classicism!”

At this moment a brave, impeccably dressed, inebriated contemporary composer who had just snorted a line of coke off a teenage classmate's back and understood the folly of a(r/u)tistic movements such as serialism and fully supported the preservation and continuation of the true old masters' legacies stood and held up a composition notebook.

”Professor, do you recognize this piece?”

The arrogant professor smirked quite Lutheranly as he leafed through the notebook. "Why, there's nothing in here but blank manuscript paper, you stupid pedophile. Is it 4'33"?"

"No. It's an opera. If J.S. Bach, as you say, is categorically the greatest composer of all time... then he should have written one, and it should be in this book."
The professor was visibly shaken, and dropped his chalk and 80-disc Glenn Gould boxed set. He stormed out of the room crying those Bach fanboy crocodile tears. The same tears all autismal fanboys cry when someone else's favorite composer is different from theirs. There is no doubt at all that our professor, an anonymous craven coward who balked at accepting responsibility for his 4chan posts by using a tripcode on /mu/, wished he had taken the time to appreciate music beneath its surface aesthetics and understand the incalculable grace and poise of the great Classical masterpieces and deep intellectual current which runs beneath their simple veneer. In the final moments before his suicide, he wished so much for a requiem mass to be sung at his funeral, but alas! The lazy Bach had neglected to write any of those, either!

Find a good teacher, one that pays a lot of attention to technique. You don't want to have to unlearn bad technique.

Hanon and Czerny are your friends. Exercises are boring, but really help you.

Practice with a metronome. While raw practice time is good, an important part of practicing is practicing well. Be sure to take things slowly, and practice with hands apart before putting them together at a slower tempo. Seriously, get a metronome - while you don't want your playing to be excessively metronomic in the future, keeping time and being able to internalize that metronome are both important.

There must be a higher meaning to it; there must be some force that wants to console the troubled human race.

There isn't really a name for it, its just having 2 melodic ideas at the same time. Very common in sonata form development sections. Sonata form usually consists of 2 melodies, and the composer almost always has them play off each other and intermingle during the development.
