If I've learned one thing by making this video it's that I really REALLY should stop hitting my space bar so hard! :) Thank you all for all the great comments, suggestions and questions! Episode two of this series is dropping tomorrow! 5/20/20

It must be a piano player thing I’m on my 3rd wireless Mac keyboard in 2 years they are thin and don’t require much force but I can’t help it I might switch to an off name compatible to save bread I do it subconsciously but I’m glad I’m not the only one

Music is not in the notes but the silence in between. Don't try to write so much harmonies and etc. Maybe try writing less and simple as you can.

@timkirchhof747 3 жыл бұрын

@@wolfie8748 Music is the notes. Silence and space is a part of how the notes relate to each other. Such an annoying phrase. (citation: professional jazz musician and composer; me)

Many thanks for sharing! A good way to gauge the quality of the content of a video is: the viewers don't feel that time is dragging; in other words, this video is so good that 13 minutes (plus) went by so fast. I take it that the 20 down votes (as at mid May 2020) are by people selling orchestral contents! Another sub added to your growing list. Once again, many thanks for sharing - excellent stuff

That was awesome! I have combined orchestral elements to my music (I play metal), but it has always been such a huge task that it required a different inspiration from me, a state of spirit that I was not always able to achieve easily. But the way you demonstrated, it became easier! Excellent job!
