Half Way
Sunday, June 30, 2013 at 8:05 PM 
Final day of June. Half way through the year. Thought you might like an update on how ye great composing challenge is going. Remember? I set myself the task of composing a new piece of music every week this year.
Well…..I am super proud to say that I've stuck to it. (I reckon that's worth a fanfare or two!) There are now more than twenty pieces in the repertoire…..which is pretty amazing to me given that, prior to beginning the challenge, I'd only ever composed one tune!
Only sorry to say that I can't share them with you, 'cause I still don't have a means of recording. So they're swimming about my brain and lingering in my fingers and I'm doing my damnest not to forget them. If you ever visit Dixon Hill, however, I shall be more than happy to b̶o̶r̶e̶ regale you with a medley of said tunes.
Now….on to the next twenty odd….

I'm thrilled for you! I'm not musical in the least, so I am very impressed. What a lovely piano!
Congrats composer!
Do you have a smart phone? You can use the video function to capture your pieces; just set the visual of the video to anything, e.g. the keyboard, or your beautiful face!
I do record on my iPhone, Rosanna - just to jog my memory. But I don't think the quality of the recordings is good enough to share with folk. Usual problem - two bars from the end of a piece the phone will go or the dog patters across the wooden floor. I've had it with acoustic recording. I'm hanging out for a keyboard so I can record internally! ;)
Congratulations! - what a challenge you have set and congratulations for the achievements you have made already.
I haven't stopped by for a while, but thought I would pop in and see what you are up to. I am glad I stopped by.
Enjoy the summer and have a wonderful week.
