I guess I'm a composer now
Switchblade:
today, I put the finishing touches on an original composition, saved the MIDI version to CD, and brought it home. It's called "Binary."
it's a minimalist composition for two pianos, two marimbas, a string section, two wood blocks and a clarinet, and I am intensely proud of it. So proud, that I want to swagger around and shout the news to the world through a megaphone, wearing naught but my posing pants.
I'd kinda like to post it somewhere, but my grasp of copyright law is a little shakey, so I probably won't.
blindsuperhero:
Copyright in what sense? You don't want people ripping you off or you don't want people knowing you ripped them off?
Switchblade:
don't want to be ripped off.
If I'm honest, the works borrows quite heavily from both Steve Reich and Phillip glass, except being based around quite a melodic pentatonic motif, so it's original enough to pass for mine.

hey, congratulations. i know i feel the same way every time i finish a short story. can't imagine how i'll feel if i ever get around to writing a novel.
and, i would be careful, at least until you get a copywrite. the music industry is replete with stories of ripped off compositions and stolen royalties.
FruitKat:
Yay for swaggering and shouting!
Good on youuuuu!
I really wanna start composing... I really should... Definitely should... I will... Maybe...
GO YOU!
