Hi, I wanted to compose a simple piano piece using Sibelius, which I did. I've uploaded both the audio & the score.
Score: 1st page
Score: 2nd page
zebox: 320kbps mp3
Feedback appreciated!

is this like a midi program? the key velocity sounds very static.

he-he, thanks :] I composed it using Sibelius (the PNG files are exports), then exported the MIDI into FL-Studio, and used the Edirol Orchestral VST, gave it a little mastering and converted it :] Glad you like it!
Pete: no bother, I'm surprised she didn't still have some sort of contact-info for you already!

Hmm, the main melody is great like usual. Could use better accompanying melodies instead of an obvious round perhaps, but still sounded good together.

this sounds like a classical composition in essence.
i like the ending a lot, in the middle it sort of was at rest, nothing really pulled me in there..
but very nice composition, sounds complex arrangement wise also.

Hmm, yeah, I wanted to pace the piece rather than have it jerk from the original theme into a wild variation: it builds from being peaceful and contemplative, with the spaces gradually being filled, culminating with the final variation, which only briefly touches base on the melody before climaxing to a semi-plaintive coda.
Or something :]

Great composition as always. This one in particular-- though more technical-- was devoid of any emotional quality, at least for me. It's good for a listen or two.

Aye, it was just a compositional exercise to get back into practising--I'm hoping to integrate Sibelius into my "electronic" music-making to make it more dynamic :] Thanks for the listen

Actually I listened again and like it much more now for some reason, maybe because I've been listening to this inferior track I made for you just now:

I's ok, but it's quite obvious that it's for practising only, so.. not much to say.

you always make the most charming of little melodies--I liked it a lot, and so did Caitlin.

Hmm, now that I know maybe kids are listening I think next time I'll suddenly burst out in expletives somewhere in the middle of the track. The 'expletive' wikipedia entry is interesting:
"It is important that you work hard for the exam."
It has no meaning here; it merely serves as a dummy subject.
Ah ha ha, fucking evolution-baggage carrying biological fucking primates fucking filling their sentences with redundant references to their fucking biological mating behavior.
For that track I used a supre secret bonus trick. Since I have the complete opposite of absolute pitch (however I can hum melodies in real time as I imagine them well it seems (not chords though probably)) I have to tediously hum each note to find out what exact pitch it is (I only learned to imagine c major scale notes) while trying to compare it to the tones of cheapy modplug piano sounds, so I can program into the pattern data. Well, to solve this problem I simply recorded a wav of me humming (in note c). Now its really easy to find the notes, as I'm comparing to my current humming to my own humming sound, so it stands out better if the wrong note.

I can only hum one melody at a time so any polyphony added on top would make it all muddy from too much symmetry. Thats why I take a melody line I already made and raise it an octave or something so it stands out by itself even while the others are playing. Plus it would be embarrassing and sound dumb. Its quite easy to spontaneously mentalize (a real word maybe) melodies; just converting to modplug data is a pain. I could maybe use melodyne to immediately interpret all hums but it mostly sucks, and modplug data makes it easy to create polyphony (for one thing melodyne completely hijacks all audio so no other audio software will work at all while its open).

Just hum the pitch of middle C and make it a .wav file to be used as a melodic instrument!
