Composer At Work

I am so loving having a piano (my piano!) to play on again.  And in order that I play with a purpose, I’ve challenged myself to compose a new piece of music every week this year.

I’m not sure how feasible a challenge that is.  I’m a novice composer and am still figuring out my process.   I suspect it may take more than a week for pieces I truly love to come into being.  But, to be honest, if I get half way to my target I’ll be more than content.

Besides, I don’t currently have any means to record my music so I carry it in my head.  Which may pose a problem by December! 

But I’m giving it a go regardless.  And so far, so good.

I'm intrigued by this idea and wish you well in composing even just a few pieces. Having such a panorama spread out before you as you play must be a source of inspiration. Perhaps 'Songs of the Moors'? Good luck!
