Using Sibelius, I composed a short piece for piano, directly to sheet music... You can view the sheet music (just have to aut0install a little viewer which is very useful. as you will be able to view sheet music online), and then hit play to hear the piece... If you read music, please study the text, it has some nice sections.

Sibelius? I have been trying to find this program online and have not been sucessful. I dont mean to go offtopic but i am wondering how did you like working with program? Did you find it to be user friendly and/or stright forward? I'd be curious to hear your thoughts.
I will take a look at this though

As long as a person is fairly organised, it is quite simple to use... the more a person's knowledge of sheet music, the more you can do.. it really is fantastic... :)

Ok i installed all that jazz and i listened to what you did. I like that. Did you have previous piano lessons or reading sheet music? I was watching it as it played and i was impressed with what i heard.
I am not saying that this is a mind blowing work of genious but i thought it was a nice little short piece. I think this with the addition of your other musical talents could produce some truly fantastic work :)

It really is a very harmless and small download - it's just a viewer so you can read sheet music. But no, I don't have the MIDI file or SIBELIUS file uploaded :(

its nice... did you write that or play it... because that end bit would take a long time to get right, even for my gf and she's grade 5...

I wrote it in 20 minutes directly in Sibelius, without a piano or MIDI keyboard or another music package... If you study it, it's really rather a clever piece with some nice call and answer and recurrances :)
MY credentials: I have RSM Grade 7 piano, which means I could teach piano... also, I privately studied composition.
ta for listening :)

I would like to see more of this.
How about a reworking of Cardew's "soon"? Perhaps?

I didn't get a chance to print it out last night but I'll try tonight and have a go over the weekend. I should be able to do something though. Grade 7 ain't easy and I got an honours for that :)

I listened to it, and I liked the melodies, but I couldnt get the program to play back in piano. it was playing it back as like a xylophone type sound... kinda cool, but it's clearly a piece meant for piano, and doesn't really sound the same with other instruments.

I wrote it using a celeste, which to me sounded nicer, as it has a kind of music-box feel to it :) Don't worry, it wasn't your playback malfunctioning ;)
I have just finished a piece for flute with piano accompaniment, which I think is pretty fab! I'm awaiting approval at that site, so I'll probably link to it tomorrow evening :)

It's nice, but i kinda wish it wasn't in midi format. It'd be cool on an old barely-in-tune school piano i think as a field recording with some echoey background noise, or maybe as a real music box like bjork used on some versions of vespertine tracks. Sounds kinda bjork-ish in the melody actually, nice and wintry.

hi - thanks for listening - as you may have noticed, although it is listed as being for piano, the MIDI voice used is Celeste, which is more the instrument that the piece is suited for :)
