Thank you so much! I am glad you found it cozy and nostalgic… basically I download public domain paintings, and overlay it with a transparent png image of my score. (which can be exported in musescore by ticking some settings options) I am glad that you found the visual aesthetics beautiful. Thanks again for listening and commenting! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterthePapercomPoser Posted Wednesday at 03:05 AM Share Posted Wednesday at 03:05 AM Hi again @ComposedBySam! I usually try to stay away from the descriptor "jazzy" unless you're actually writing something along the lines of jazz (which some claim can't be done since jazz is supposed to include some semblance of improvisation). This is clearly a classical work with extended harmony but I wouldn't say that there's anything particularly "jazzy" about it. Lots of different types of music use extended harmony not just jazz (more notably neoromanticism). I like how I can hear your individual melodic voice in this piece - there's a sense of this music being a relative of your "Escapist" Dreamscapes contest entry, since you used a similar instrumentation of Piano and Cello. Btw - in chamber music the solo instruments go on top of the accompanying instrument. So, in this case, Clarinet and Cello should both be above the piano. Any particular reason you chose to process the audio the way you did? Are you aiming for this piece to be a lo-fi track? Thanks for sharing!
