I started composing when I was 14. I know that I have progressed since then, because I recorded the first song I composed and it sounds terrible!
I must get one of those programs, PrintMusic, so I don't lose my songs. I compose by sitting at the piano, and I just start playing whatever sounds good, and when I 'm done, I play it agian so I can remember it. Then when I have time, I write it down. Does anybody here compose that way?
