I too am in this way of your thinking Ricardo, i think it is important to practice other peoples music to develop a strong base, but the way "composing "was described in general was a litlle simplistic. quote:
Not by being all coy and arty and playing your own "safe" compositions that "fit" your hand and technique. even if not good by your standards, that is what is generaly called composing [:)] and its probably a good idea to play compositions that match your technique. (personaly, i play something i can first, but then i listen to it a million times and imagine in my head what i wanna hear next, wherever the note is and practice it to get used to it so i just slowly build on a simple idea, there are many techniques for composing none wrong.) And before i used to do it the other way, just build around what i can do, but now i try to be more music driven and not just what i can do, then i can practice it and learn it. your first composition might not be good, what is the right thing to do ? give up ? or keep going ? u can still practice other peoples music while striding for your own. I am in no way suggesting that what you are doing is wrong or a waiste of time or unusefull, i am suggestiong that we shouldnt use someones good achivement (yours) to knock something unrelated. Shouldnt use anyones good achivement or succes to knok anything perriod, just make the compliment u wanna make, too often i see it here, people are paying someone a compliment but really they are also using it to in a round about sort of way criticise someone else with it [:D][:D]. and since this week i been trying to compose something and it just happens to be on the next thread... a solea thing i am trying to compose cause i decided latley to try harder to slowly come up with my own stuff i like, cause its getting harder and hader at myspace, all the famous guitarists whos falsetas i play are starting to come there and i am expecting a tap on the shoulder any day [:o] i fell a litlle weird reading this [:D][:D] specially since the 2 arent related, if i play Paco solea falseta better like the recording, still dosent solve my myspace problem, i still need to come up with my own stuff. I know this peticular time it is the wrong reason to compose for but i like the cute girls there !! and it makes me happy !! if i got to chose between the cute girls there and the respect here, i will drop you people like a bag of potatos everytime [:)] jk.....kind off [8|] my choices are pretty straight foward, happy first, technique and respect here somewhere lower. i am of your way of thinking too, just dont think we should discurage composing, even if at first sucks, if you dont practice it will always suck no matter how good your technique is.. And I am not sure if its aimed at me, i dont wanna pressume either way, but i dont happen to think it all sucks lol, i happen to think only 30% sucks, i love the rest !
