:lol: Sounds like something a rapper could go with ^^ Very nice though!

That was an interesting version of it, but I must say I enjoyed it! ^_^

By the way, is the picture for this piece supposed to be the beginning to Beethoven's fifth?

Ding Ding Ding! 10 Points! Yep...Beethoven's 5th! It was the easiest piece I could think of to make into a generic music icon sumbol!

At some point I'll have the whole version of this piece up - it was intended to sound like a music box being wound up, and winding down.

Thankx!

^_^ Yay! I ended up playing this in orchestra this year. It was fun, but strangely difficult. I'm usually pretty decent at Beethoven... ^_^;;

...woke up this morning and realized I forgot the staccatto marks under the first 3 notes...

What instrument do you play?

I've never really played the 5th - I would imagine it would be difficult because so much of it relys on the dramatic holding of that fourth note in the theme.

There's a lot more to it than that. The first beat is a rest, and the hold note is actually a whole note that gets its own measure, and the piece is also written in... I think one flat... so you don't need the flat on the E note there ^_^;;

Sorry... I'm getting to be just a jerk about it now V_V Still, sometimes it can be good to know these things... I suppose...

No, you're not bein' a jerk - you're absolutely correct.

I was constrained by the limitations of a square thumbnail - and two measures would need more of a rectangle shape, or it would get to be too small for someone to read and figure out what it was (like you!) in a square.

Also, by the time I found the Treble Clef symbol, the key signature wouldn't fit in either (isn't C Minor 3 flats?), so that's why I just put it on the note itself.

And my lamest excuse is that I have no idea where the different symbols exist in that font...I was just hunting and pecking and took whatever came up first! I still haven't found the rests!

XD Well, those are all perfectly good reasons, even that last one! It just kinda sucks when you're in orchestra... then you can see stupid errors that really might be unintentional or, in this case, forced...

I need a free summer XD

Yea, for me it's the worst when I'm performing and make a mistake.

Even though I keep going, and probably 99% of the audience doesn't notice it, it's hard not to think they all noticed it because I noticed it.

Oohhhhh yeah! Making even ONE mistake is like hell! You feel like the whole bloody room heard it and thinks you're stupid, right?

Yup! My organ teacher taught me that it's important to just keep the rhythm going - the breaks in that are much more noticable than those in the notes.

But that's pretty much a solo instrument - a wrong note's worse when playing in a group!

Yeah... cause you have everyone else playing the right one, so you stand out with that one wrong note...

I can play this on a piano :D
