At the suggestion of several members, I have added some requisite screening questions for newly registering members. Registrants' responses will remain private.

Gerd Prengel replied to Gerd Prengel's discussion Gustav Mahler - Completion of an amazing draft for a symphonic Scherzo
"By now my Mahler Scherzo realisation which was  worked over by a Korean conductor can be followed by his score which really is better than mine! Please listen to that: https://youtu.be/IbG8dV9ulhw?si=pYUxq8KbZaiGCKih&t=1625 starting from 27:05. It…"

Gabriel K replied to Peter Iverson's discussion Gregor's Dream
"The stress, anxiety and general troubled feeling comes very nicely to life in your piece. Since these type of pieces usualy for most people rely more heavily on context to be meaningful, maybe you should experiment with ai in accompanying video or…"

Another long period between composing (seems like old posts were removed?) ... at least this is a space where people can relate to this feeling. I dont know if I can call it a "composition", but its something i sat on for a month or so, developing…

Another little ragtime piece, this one is modelled more on the novelty ragtime of people like Zez Confrey, Arthur Schutt, and Rube Bloom than on the "classic" ragtime of Joplin, Joseph Lamb, and James Scott.  Any comments or feedback would, as…

Rowy replied to James Hutchings's discussion [For feedback] The Call
"The music is quite plain and sounds rather uninspired. I guess no one replied because they didn’t want to offend you. Are you new to music composition?"

"(1) Most importantly, the ending just "happens" and sounds completely unexpected and unprepared

  • Oh, and please welcome our new members, if you have a chance.
  • I've allowed a few new prospective members through. If you should observe signs of bother, abuse, or any other matter that arouses suspicion, please advise me promptly.. Thanks all.
  • Indeed, it has been solved. Thanks for the prompt response!
  • HS, I believe I've isolated the HTML issue mentioned, and I believe it's now resolved. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
  • Thanks HS. I'll investigate the matter.
  • Hmm, interesting. I just noticed that replies under the Discussion Forum do allow full HTML capabilities, but replies under Analysis & Critique don't. Maybe this is a section-specific setting that needs to be toggled?
  • It's been a while since somebody wrote something here. So I thought I'd bring up this request to allow links and attachments in comments, not just in posts. It would make it easier to have in-depth discussions without needing to create a new thread every time somebody wants to attach something to illustrate their ideas.
  • ok - that sounds like a good setting so will be interesting to see what the explanation (if any) is.
  • David, puzzling, because the site's settings at present bar members who aren't "friended" from sending private messages. I'll look into it.
  • As newest member Erica Woodward sent a message to at least one member wanting to urgently discuss something privately, it is to suspected that we have another spammer. If I remember correctly, on the old forum, prospective members had to submit a couple of sentences (which weren't posted publicly) explaining why they wanted to join the forum. I suspect spambots and others who are not serious about contributing would fall at this hurdle and I suggest something like this for possible consideration by the membership.
