"I keep it simple. I write what I can play and ensure it's within reach for the average musician too. Once the composition is done, I create the score. Nowadays, since players often need to hear the music first, I also provide a sound file. That's…"
"We will not be artistically obsolete. On the contrary, we will be the masters of AI. Have faith "
"I'll copy my reply from VI-Control:
Udio is currently indeed better than most AI music generators. However, it is not a threat to composers who can compose at an advanced level. I have a good idea of what will happen and I am already preparing for…"

"I hardly ever bother to have a look at the score. If the music sounds good, it is good. I make a lot of scores myself, but that's because I write for keyboard players. I don't know what I would do with orchestral music. It's a lot of work."
"Keeping it this simple can be so annoying that you're not even interested in the melody. But I don't want to nag. The OP can write a good melody; you need talent for that. As for the rest - harmony, voice leading, counterpoint, orchestration - you…"
"Okay, thanks. So voicing is more than voice leading? That explains it. I couldn't find any reasonable voice leading in this composition. The rest, I call orchestration. "
"To brush up on my English, is "voicing" the same as "voice leading"?"
"I'm having difficulty enjoying this, because of the simple accompaniment. There's more to music than a melody + chords as accompaniment. Perhaps one of the self-taught composers can tell you how to make a more interesting score and where to find…"
"Okay, I give up. You have proven that you are the real amateur here."
"I can't hear the difference between a third and a sixth. Now who's the amateur? Okay, I recognize a single fault in a busy score, but that's because I'm an idiot savant. Try again."
"16 replies about the paper size of a score. Some people think that modern composers aren't that interesting, but you proved them wrong "
"Still, it's a nice piece of music, although I agree with you about the harmony. It's tempting to write a different version, but now that I'm retired, I consider myself an amateur, and I'm not particularly fond of amateur music. It's probably best to…"
"What a nice idea! I would have written a piece titled 'Dessert' (wink, wink) but I've never been fond of mathematics."
"Most people will associate this composition with one of Chopin's works. I don't know if you'll like that, but there is a danger in it. Chopin was a master of harmony. If you study harmony at a conservatory, analyzing some of his works is almost…"
"It will always cost you an arm and a leg. I asked my friend once what her work would have cost me if I hired her through her company. I wished I hadn't asked. Just to make sure I told her what good friends we are, for more than 25 years, and how…"
