Today I have completed a piece for piano.
"Riverhead Plateau" from "23 Preludes for Piano".
I've tried to close to impressionism.
Is it vague or opaque work?
Would it too…

Jeff Brien replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"Shocking, savage, surreal, yet surprisingly soft in sections!
I applaud your compositional bravery. As for "fixing" your notation, you have been given some excellent suggestions and I think you can benefit from them. However, there is a…"
Nobuyoshi Tanaka replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"Thanks for the advice fine and polite.Because there are no teachers to me, I can not have confidence in their own notation.I'm taking into account your advice and try to revise the score.

I'm glad you found the checklist helpful. I would have given anything to have had such a guide all these years ago! I try to provide for my students what I most wish a teacher had given me. I'll be…"
Julie Harris replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"Hi Janet-
I'm so relieved that you found my post helpful and not contradictory. The whole issue of notation can be a nightmare for contemporary composers. I used to use 8 as the pulse for all measures and then flit around in 7/8,…"
Janet Spangenberg replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"Thanks for posting this Julie. It takes a lot of effort (and knowledge/experience) to go into this kind of detail, including the specific suggestions you did.

Bob Porter replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"I remember the first time I saw this music. I thought it was a hopeless jumble of notes. I'd heard it (we all have) but never seen it.

It is not a dedicated software notation, and there is a lot that can not be expressed, and some can not be fixed.

Greg Brus replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"The point of writing a score isn't putting a lot of work into something that then requires even more work from the players to decipher it.

Janet Spangenberg replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"I disagree that this score is easily decipherable with "some" study. Deciphering this score would be a monumental task, and there are two performers that need to do so. A new software won't clean it up, an understanding of notation…"
Spiros Makris replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"You are correct, the score is very readable. There are some unconventional points, but they are easily deciferable with some study. I would put an effort into clearing the look a bit, moving some marks that clash with notes and so on.

Bob Porter replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"What software did you use to write this? I don't think you need different software. I'm not sure how much of the score needs to be "fixed" at all. I have seen many scores like this. I don't know how piano players figure them…"
Nobuyoshi Tanaka replied to Nobuyoshi Tanaka's discussion A piece for flute and piano"OK, I'll buy the Finale in the near future.
it is too expensive, but it seems to me there is a need.If I bought the Finale, I would fix this score.
Thanks."

Just took a listen through all of your play list and enjoyed it. I especially enjoyed "Gear" and its rhythms. I think from hearing these that the piece you might most connect with from my own is the Memoir #4 Violin and synthesizer duet which was actually written in 1979/80 If you didn't hear it I'd enjoy hearing your reaction.
You're a master. I bow to you.
Thank you Nobuyoshi.
thank you for the comment Tanaka :)
Thanks for the positive feedback on my music! Really enjoying your stuff as well, especially Genesis of Time. Keep up the great writing!
Thank you for listening and for your comments. I'll gladly accept the loose label of "neoclassicism." My first and perhaps strongest influence was Stravinsky--all of his work/genres.
Thanks for the comments about my music. I'll listen to yours soon!
Fluid soundfont on this page: http://musescore.org/en/handbook/soundfont
good for all orchestral instruments except woodwinds (okay I guess with full chorusing).
Thanks a lot and much appreciated!
Welcome Nobuyoshi-san! Glad to see you here too and to listen to your wonderful music!
