May 25, 2020 at 4:17 | comment | added | meganoob | I agree with you about the satisfaction of a fully fledged composition, and in the end, maybe that is the most important part. | |
May 25, 2020 at 3:29 | comment | added | Jodast | You make a good point with the serialists, but its more satisfying to know a piece was composed by me in every facet. If it's good, it's like "hey, I made this." Otherwise it just feels like I'm taking credit for an algorithm's work | |
May 25, 2020 at 1:29 | comment | added | meganoob | but if you set the initial conditions for the composition, isn't it still your music? Setting preconditions for your composition then fulfilling them by hand is still the same as getting a program to do the heavy lifting is the same? It not much different from the serialists in that they have a tone row to predetermine their note choices | |
May 25, 2020 at 0:51 | comment | added | Jodast | @meganoob I guess, but I'm a programmer at heart and eventually I'll end up writing a program to automate it like everything else, which is why I want to compose it by hand. So I don't get tempted to turn it into something that isn't my music | |
May 25, 2020 at 0:46 | comment | added | meganoob | I love his Cantus in Memoriam to Benjamin Britten. The way it is conceived is great, I like the algorithmic nature of its composition. I don't think generating compositions in this way is a bad thing, because you end up creating a composition that does things that you don't expect. Instead of thinking of it as generating music, I think it's more about imposing rules on yourself. | |
