1/ In an ideal musical environment (nurture), youthful songwriters would NATURALLY grow up into legitimate composers. They're now stunted by unnatural emphasis on commercial "songs" to the exclusion of other musical forms and genres. #classicalmusic

Fun fact: With a market cap of $9,378,754,790, #BitcoinCash $BCH is now no. 15, well above that of Chainlink, Monero, Stellar, Litecoin, etc. Good job! 👏🏼 Source: coingecko.com

To train AI to "create" professional music pieces, start by enrolling the thing in an undergraduate music course: harmony, counterpoint, sight-singing, music history, and a gob of music listening, ear-training, and analysis. Make it suffer like a human. 😁

Orchestral musicians performing/recording their parts for, say, a movie or video game soundtrack. AI won't be playing an oboe or cello any time soon, but perhaps the Tool could help us edit the score. (?) 🤔

Name an AI tool that has been trained to write music with standard staff notation, such as that used by Bach, Haydn, Beethoven, and Wagner — masters of the craft. Thought so. 🎹 🎼 🎵 #ProfessionalDevelopment #lifelonglearning #pianolessons

Talking politics at the workplace – i.e., on the job – is usually a bad idea and may have disastrous consequences. So, if the "workplace" (source of income) is social media...

If a composer such as Richard Wagner can outline a coherent modulation scheme for a 4-hr opera (e.g., Tristan) and plan a corresponding web of melodic/harmonic moments that track and match a poetic script, it can also be done for a movie. #filmmusic

The central development, or "working-out" section of sonata form pieces can serve as a model for film music composition. E.g., take Beethoven's "Heroic" 3rd symphony, movement I, the dramatic modulations occurring between Exposition and Recapitulation sections.

Is anyone else tired of retailers' and banks' constant email pestering for "a short online survey" EVERY TIME you shop or transact? It's a nuisance.

What are "related keys"? A group of key signatures with tonics that share the same diatonic scale. To start with, C, d, e, F, G, and a (case-sensitive) are pretty closely related keys, having no more than one or two accidentals of separation.

One thing about orchestral suites (original series) and sonata forms (next-generation) is that all movements of a suite share the same principle tonic (parallel modes not withstanding). Sonata movement tonics vary (i.e., special harmonic FX). 🎹 #filmmusic

Perhaps J. S. Bach was one of those artists whose strong faith made the connection between the right and left brain hemispheres and authorized him (much like the technique of self-hypnosis) to compose so many precision musical works throughout his life.
