Hi, everyone!
Since composing is mostly a creative, free and complicated procedure which happens in mind my question cannot really be specified further without restraining some of your ways to compose.
But I want to give a guideline so that it becomes clearer what I want to know:
-how and when do you collect/organise your ideas (immediate write on stickies, etc.., mindmapping, any computer program)
-how do you develop/plan your ideas/concepts?
-which steps do you make to write your music? (free drawings of the concept...reduced for piano...the whole score at once...) With pen and paper? Finale, Sibelius, Lilypond...? (Please no Sibelius/Finale war)
-do you have a prefered workspace/desk? What are the elements of it? (computer programs...)
Ok, that's it. I hope that there will be many interesting ways on how to compose.
