well i'd love to be able to pay you for the sheet music but i've taught myself this from the video and it's still genuinely one of my favourite pieces:') and probably my best warmup piece, it just feels wonderfully fluid to play
I like the gradual increase in tension and the element of disturbance and disruption that comes to head and retreats....the ending is also has the distinct effect of leaving something behind.
Really fantastic stuff yet again! Feels like a cross between Copland/Zelda/yoshimatsu, which all feel light and refreshing and delightfully off-kilter. And also great work pulling this great of a sound out of musescore. Keep writing!
Thank you :) I definitely feel like you nailed the influences/overall intended vibe of the piece! Glad you liked it. Also, I’ve been really enjoying all of the piano pieces you’ve been posting as well lately!
Gorgeous orchestration of your already very nice piano piece! The instrument associations and the resulting textures are so well chosen and a delight to hear. There is something reminiscent of your Sketch in G piece (itself somewhat reminiscent of Ravel's music), I guess this must be your personal style and preferences that I sense across your music. I'm curious to know if you used MuseScore sounds or external instruments plugins for the rendering?
Thank you, I was actually intending on this piece being in a similar style to the Sketch in G piece, but with some different “vocabulary” so to speak. It’s definitely reflective of many of my preferences! For the sounds, it’s entirely MuseScore, but with lots of hidden dynamics, articulation, and even duration markings. Unfortunately it wouldn’t play back nearly as cleanly without a lot of additional tweaking.
Dear Thad, congratulations to your work! My name is Andreas, I´m a conductor in Germany. Are you interested to write a piece for a real orchestra and choir? Best wishes Andreas
Hello Andreas, thank you so much for your interest in my music. My work schedule is quite busy for the next few months, but I am definitely interested in your thoughtful offer! Feel free to contact me through my website at thadbaileymai.com/contact 😊
I really like your work. I wonder how you create these thumbnails with images in the background. Is there any option to display sheet music on a transparent background in musescore?
Oh my gosh, this is such a beutiful peice! The ways in which the different lines, melodies and countermelodies mesh and balance with each other while still bringing out the contrast in textures over the entire arrangement withought letting the complexity of the peice convolute it is really cool!! You've been one of my biggest composition inspirations :)
I wrote a good chunk of this while I had a couple friends over playing Minecraft trying to convince me to join their realm instead of working… I think it rubbed off!
Bonjour de la France 👍 Court mais génial, c'est toujours un grand plaisir d'écouter tes nouvelles créations de très belle musique contemporaine ! Pour ma part je continue à monter mon répertoire Bill Evans pour orchestre symphonique, je vise une quinzaine de transcriptions.
really enjoy how you toss the melody between instruments, gives it a nice light feel. How do you make the score fit the frame without it adding other lines? every time i hide unused staves it adds other lines into the frame.
Thank you! If I’m understanding you correctly, you can adjust how many bars fits into each page with the bracket keys or by selecting how many bars you want and hitting return/enter. You can also use spacers and page breaks to limit how many staves appear per page. Hiding unused staves will make the score messy at first, then you can do these adjustments afterwards.
