1am + ....
Listening to music for almost 2 hours.... noticed that composers each have their own specific styles or sounds that are generally identified with them... is this a good thing?
have been composing this few days... haven't really seen much of a style that i'm really stuck in yet.... but sound wise... think its almost similar... my consonance are relatively alike and so are the dissonances ....
But is it asking too much to be different? haha ... we don't really have to be different, just make our each individual style work for us and first of all you must appreciate the style.
oh well...
later in the evening, the time has come... the judging of the SNYO composition competition. not really sure where my chances are along this judging, the piece was quite half-heartedly done due to time constraints, the two halves of the piece didnt really link... that could be used as a point of composition?
oh well...
i need to practise harder... next week is the concert... so fast! argh... the orchestra needs to feel the urgency, at least for the winds... theres no sense of being to the orchestra for many that they do not see the consequences if we do not perform well... eyes are already ready to see how well we are gonna perform...
don't forget the ears... they are definitely ready to criticise every single wrong passage... phrasing... gosh... the saxophone soli... damn worried man.... still haven't got used to the instrument....
need to breathe more... amzing how breathless i get when playing the saxophone... sadly.... i need to practise!!!!!! MORE AIR !!!!!!
oh well....
