Default Howdy, I have here a "n

Howdy,

I have here a "noodling" piece I was noodling around one day with modes (Dorian, to be specific) and trying some different things out on my whistle, just to get a feel for what "vibes" the various modes give, when the main tune for this piece just sort of happened. I recorded it into Composer using my midi keyboard, mostly so I wouldn't forget how it went.

I then added the cello part using the mouse, and later added the harp part. However, I did the last bit using the Pro beta release, so you'll have to use that to check out the file (sorry - it just sort of happened). I didn't do a whole lot of tweaking, but I did clean up the performance a wee bit to make it flow a little better (I'm no keyboardist by any stretch of the imagination).

This is yet another example of my "hack and hone" method of note entry - I have a very ancient Casio keyboard, which has no controllers of any kind, but I can record the rhythms of what I hear in my head and get them into Composer. I can then easily go in and adjust pitches and set any other controllers (volume changes, etc) that I want to for the performance of the piece.

I have put up a recording of the Garritan Personal Orchestra instruments for this piece at my site on SoundClick. I ended up with a stuck note, but it actually fits in and sort of gives a tension to the piece that it wouldn't have had, so I left it in for this recording. I may change it when I figure out the stuck note problem, and if so, I'll re-post here. It's short, but it demonstrates how nice the GPO instruments sound, even unadulterated
