"Dance of the Matryoshka Dolls" K.047 / Piano Solo Original Composition [Non-AI Music]
Original Composition using Dorico 5, for Christmas 2024
#Christmas #OriginalComposition #PianoSolo
Tools used:
* Steinberg Dorico Pro 5
* EastWest Steainway Piano
* Presonus Studio One 5 for mixing/mastering
This is my Christmas 2024 project! I'm experimenting with mixing Western and Slavic dance musical style.
Technical Commentary --
This work was composed using Steinberg Dorico sheet music notation software. The audio you hear is playback from the software driving EastWest Steinway VST. While I transcribe dynamics changes, timing variations, and other manual tweaks, rest of human-like playback is handled by Dorico's advanced humanization velocity algorithm for polymorphic instruments (such as...

I just uploaded the PDF score -- please find my Google drive link below. Please keep in mind that I'm an learning amateur composer, and I was VERY amateur when I wrote this piece! This work has not been "human player" tested.

    This is my August experiment, trying out some movie-like sequences! This was composed on MuseScore version 4.1.1 using MSBasic only (no MuseSounds) -- if you want to see what it looks/sounds like in this early phase, here is the unlisted link: ruclips.net/video/GkDb4TRC_QM/видео.html Since MuseScore4 is still new and lacking some features, I exported the score in MusicXML format, read that using MuseScore3 to create a MIDI file. The MIDI file is read by Presonus Studio One 6 DAW, where I have EastWest virtual orchestra/choir libraries. I add articulations and enhance dynamics, as well as doing the standard mixing/mastering process. WAV audio file is created by the DAW. On this round, I used ffmpeg to produce mp4 video from WAV audio and JPG image. ffmpeg also allows me to fine tune loudness since RUclips likes the -14 dB LUFS level. If you have interest in digitally creating Classical, Jazz, Cinematic, Ethereal, or Religious music, I run a small hobby social media group for both tech and music discussions! mewe.com/join/ClassicalJazzComposers

      Thank you! This is my 2nd attempt at "scoreless" composition. I think it's good for simpler soundFX/media/movie/TV work (especially for the effects-focused audio product), but for more sophisticated and formal classical compositions, I would still use the scoring software as the primary or the first-stage composing tool. It's good to try both methods though!

    After taking a little time away from my music hobby, I've started my 3rd year with an ethereal piece "Visions Across Time", which is bit of paradigm shift for me! * My first Ethereal work, adding synthesizers and sound FX with the traditional orchestral instruments * Composed directly on a DAW with my MIDI keyboard (with a notepad/pencil) * Metronome-less, bar-less "free time" recording, later tempo-mapped to measures * Focused more on audio production value over compositional details Let me know what you think!

    I would like to present my "year-two" composition compilation in an album format! All works were re-mixed/re-mastered, with several improvements and corrections made from the original arrangements. My first year goal was primarily focused on learning music composition at scoring/transcription tier with less focus on audio. MuseScore was my primary tool, which is currently limited on quality of audio playback. All my year-two works were ported to, or composed directly on a DAW, with primary focus on audio quality on the end products, learning about mixing/mastering, working with various orchestral instruments, articulations and the associated VST libraries. I'm still searching for the major paradigm-shift for my third year goal!
