Music Composers Unite!
I feel one of the greatest questions with composition is what's your ultimate goal in music. Is it to move people, express a pain or feeling, make money, show people a little bit of what your world, love making, etc. I personally feel with most of my music is I want to bring people on a journey they haven't experienced yet; show the changes of moods I find most beautiful. Please share with me, I would love to hear.

Comment by Noah Fraioli on April 6, 2012 at 2:10pm My dream is to be the next Mozart. I know it sounds farfetched, but it's true. I want people to want to listen to my music even after I'm dead and I can't compose anymore. Of course, I plan on outliving the poor guy; I won't settle for 35 years of age if people like my music enough.

Comment by Doug Lauber on March 20, 2012 at 7:48pm I compose, record and mix because I think I have a knack for it. I want to hear a kind of music that I haven't heard before. I really like the idea of creating 'art objects' in the form of recordings. Also, I have an 'urge' to be creative.

Mostly I compose because I enjoy it. As far as I know that is. In the past I have composed to get a good grade, to have a new song to play in my band, to impress a woman, to explore a new process I heard about, to enter in a competition, the list goes on and on really. To avoid doing more important things, that's a big motivator sometimes.
