I see that my first post should be in this forum, so here I am. I'm a composer/musician/director from the central US, but don't hold that against me! I'm glad to find a resource like this for those dry spells and hope I might help others through them too.

What styles of music are you most interested in?

Friendly bunch here! I like that. :)

My tastes as far as enjoyment are pretty eclectic, including but not limited to rock, classical, blues, old standards, big band, folk... you get the idea.

Composition is a different story and I realize that I'm waaaaaay in the minority here. A little background: I mentioned that I'm a director. Specifically I'm the choral director for a small church and a few years ago I started writing some pieces for them in order to expand our repertoire a bit without much cost (other than the hair I pulled out until I got the harmonies right). I may post a few of my older pieces later on if there's interest. I've also tried composing some poppish/rockish stuff before and I wouldn't subject anyone to the absolute crap I came up with. I wish I could develop some talent in that area but I'm afraid I have very little of the necessary knowledge of instrumentation.

Thanks for reading and the warm welcome!

:) Hi Anne. Welcome indeed. We love to listen to anything! We might not always like it! But we'll give anything a fair appraisal. We're a pretty eclectic bunch here.

Hey

Interesting background. I like the challenge of choral arrangements. Haven't don't anything in that vain for ages. Member Donna is currently active in choirs etc. but I know she is currently unable to access the boards. Hopefully she will return soon :)

Harmony is one of my passions in music. Well the whole lot is, but it is one of those things that particularly interests me. I look forward to some interesting discussions!

Cheers

John
