here's The score to a song I and my partner have written. You might have to install a plug-in but it won't take long... and will hopefully be worth it. let Me know what you think. oh, You also may be interested to hear some of the reviews.
here's A couple of quotes:

"Well, one must take a deep breath after that! I think this must be an attempt to outshine Beethoven!"
Steven Jefferies

"If they intend to create a new musical genre... they have succeeded."
Carl Stenger

I can't load the plug-in. :(

Btw, I'm interested to hear from a fellow Sibelius user. Do you have version 4 yet?

Interesting stuff so far. And good.

EDIT:
I can't load the plug-in. :(
Are you using Firefox? I've never been able to get it to work for Firefox, so I have to switch to IE to use the plugin, and it works fine then.

bummer, Ha i didn't even know there was a version 4. i use version 2.I use 3, it's so much better. More shortcuts, etc. etc. Although, I lean more to the classical side of things, so I need a good shortcut for boxed text, harp pedaling, and the inversion/retrograde functions. :cool:

Kay I'll listen now.

Hold on I'll tell you what I think. Yes, I DO think, shut up!

Sorry I took so long.

Um sorry but I cannot say anything good about this. I lowered the tempo and it was a bit more tolerable.

Sibelius is legit. Trust me. I used it for several months in the Music Technology lab on campus. It's merely a music notation program, but Windows alone is incapable of reading its files and outputting the audio.

First of all, great title. You should listen to another song on that website called "Attack of the Rabid Squirrels". Now on to serious stuff. The organ bit at the beginning was really annoying. It was more annoying than my alarm clock, although not quite as annoying as rap. Please try to restrain yourself with the crash cymbals. They are not meant to be used every single beat unless it's only for a measure or two. Also, 22 MINUTES??? I only listened to the whole thing because I didn't know it would be that long. Now for some good things. Nice use of compound meter. 7/8 is one of my favorite time signatures, second only to 5.5/8 (Yes, that is a real time signature. The only time I've ever seen it is in a song called "Sensemaya" it was used for three measures in the middle. I have no idea how you would conduct it, though.). For the most part the melody was good, although I don't really remember much of the first 18 minutes or so. All in all, I would listen to it again if I had nothing better to do. :cool:

yeah, The organ part caused a fair amount of controversy with people who've heard it but in music i like repitition. and Annoying people with it. actually I didn't write that part so don't blame me!
