Thanks Charlie for saving me face! I love your notes and I want to know what this music sounds like! It's crazy how something that might be decodeable to you is opaque to me. "Airport" "End of Green tape." It's obvious these are referring to something off the page... How do they relate to the sound or emotional content of the work? Maybe people who can read music get it, but for me these are the only clues.
My notes are very literal. "L:" refers to what the left hand plays. "R:" refers to what the right hand plays. When notes are stacked, the note on top is the note with the lowest pitch. However, no rhythm is notated.
Regarding the titles of the pieces: Birthday 2-6 are different takes on the happy birthday melody. Airport, is something I started to write while playing a public piano in the Portland airport. End of green tape is something at the end of a green tape I was recording on. Jeremy Terry piece is something my friend Jeremy likes. I don't think the names of my pieces have much to do with the sound or emotional content of the music. They are simply identifying marks for my own reference.
When you create a new post the "link" blank makes the TITLE a link.
It's a little confusing. Here's how to
create an HTML link like a pro. Copy and paste this crap into your
post/comments:
<a href="http://www.address.com">TEXT </a>
Replace the complete URL (web address) between the quotes and TEXT with what you want to appear as text in the blue link.
Congratulations...you're a nerd.
These are some notes for keyboard music.

very cool. It's funny, I keep track of my musical ideas in the same busted way -- I like it, it's way more organic than writing score.
