The Composer

I have been forced to record more of my own awful compositions and to compose more too, since youtube is coming down on a ton of bricks when people put existing music on their films. Don't blame me, blame them. Anyway, in this film the precise moment I came up with the tune "Don't Give Up" recently shown here, and also a bit more adlibbing to some flight footage. The arabic sounding bit was composed earlier by me in Moscow. I close off with a few bars of Dvorak's "Rusalka", or at least my variation on it.

I love extemporaneous music. It is like conversational speech. (Someday I WILL get a music keyboard again.)

Thanks!

[usenetposts]

You should! Let's hear it.

Bravo! Encore!

Sending my happy thoughts through the looking-glass.

It makes me think of the row over the David Bowie/Queen bass riff-cum-line for Under Pressure and its reuse by Vanilla Ice, to the extent that if the riff is simply extended and alternatively voiced into a melodic sequence, it could have as easily come from some obscure piece of baroque-style classical music. I think it has long gotten past the stage where the music industry will have to look to the likes of the policies advocated by the OpenSource computer guys.

A particular compliment from someone who has his own keyboard named after him, Thanks!

That would really take the cake, if I got blocked after making up the music as I went along, and someone else claimed it!

Just an extension of the status quo, though, bearing in mind that there are only 12 notes in an octave, and only so many chords and ways of combining them. Music was given from God to be public, and should not be placed on people's skanky balance sheets.

The occasional hesitancy in the composition section, reminded me of the piano duet in 'Betty Blue'. Hopefully, Gabriel Yared doesn't watch these posts, and is thus in a position to complain to Youtube :-)
