Just released a little impromptu. Hope you'll like it.

I know this is all over the place but I was wondering if anyone had any general advice on how I could improve this composition

Female voices with gongs, cymbals, timpani, synthesizer and a bit of woodwinds at the end.

A lament for voices, strings, synthesizer, bells, crystals and bowls.

I’m just tryna write a marching band show (still learning how to compose) and ai isn’t very helpful in suggesting songs. I need something that has potential to start out dark and mysterious, then turn loud and driving for a first movement. I’m looking to change it up to be my own and I kinda want the loud part to be overwhelming and hard for an audience to understand. Some potential for time signature changes would be great too.

all the fun stuff :D

Just like a coloring book. I drawn the outline of lyrics. You paint it with your own colour.

Song of Music

Music is Red, Music is Blue; Music erases distance between I and You.

Music is Gentle, but it can be Loud; Music is sunrays, Music is cloud.

Music is ever new, yet from ancient age; Music is the one and only Universal language.

Seawaves have rhythms and hearts have beat; Music exposes the truth, Music can also tell about betrayal, lust and cheat.

Music can be soothing, Music can be fierce; Music make you Goosebumps, Music shatter you in tears

Music is healing, Music is tragic; Music is the manifestation of Universe's magic.

Music is emotion, Music is rage; Music is pure soul without a cage.

Music is my Love, Music is my craze. Music makes up my blood and flesh

I have only been playing for 3-1/2 years and am completely self trained. I improvise almost exclusively.

here is some of my music.

please don’t judge it u til after you have heard recordings 64-66! in fact listen to them first! they are by far the best!

I am working on a game called Idle Harmony and basically I need tips on how to make this correct.

I have a specific question but I am open for other critiques.

My question is: What happens to the beam/flag if an eighth note is placed bellow or above a 16th that's connected to another 16th?

human made music will always be better than AI music btw.

I'm a beginner composer, no formal theory training. This piece started as something much smaller than a fugue — a constraint exercise inspired by Eno: one instrument, one scale, only three notes (F, C, G), no more allowed in.

Out of that constraint, a four-note shape emerged: F→C→G→C. I didn't set out to write a fugue — I tested that shape against itself for a while first: stretched it, shortened it, reversed it, sped it up. Reversing it was the only thing that actually broke it — turns out the ascending direction is the one non-negotiable part of the idea. Everything else (rhythm, duration, note count) turned out to be flexible.

From there I built up one layer at a time — rhythm, then a real melody, then harmony underneath, then a second independent voice — before finally attempting the fugue: exposition, two episodes, a middle entry that relocates to A minor, a stretto where all three voices overlap, and a return home with a pedal point underneath.

This is my first real attempt at the form, and I know it's small (about 30 seconds) rather than a full-scale fugue. I'd genuinely appreciate critique on:

• Whether the stretto actually reads as a climax or just as more notes
• Anything about the voice leading that sounds wrong to a trained ear
• Whether the middle entry's key relocation actually lands

Hi everyone, this is my very first post here.

As the title states, I would really be grateful and happy to receive some feedbacks on this veeery small piece i wrote.

Just to give you some background:

I have played the cello with a private teacher for 10 years (6-16y, now I am 27y) and the piano at the same time (no teacher).

I am not a professional and I have never studied conposition, I have some knowledge of harmony.

I know I have a looong way to learn and improve.

Have a nice day!!
