Jason 1 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I'm new to the forum, so please forgive me if there's already a thread like this (and please direct me to it).I'm an amateur composer myself (I use Notion 4), and I'm wondering whether there are other composers in this forum.I am a huge fan of John Williams, and his influence can (I think) be clearly heard in my work; but I also love Alan Silvestri, Bill Conti, Danny Elfman, Maurice Jarre, Laurence Rosenthal, and others.I would be happy to meet other composers on this forum who also love John Williams--especially if you feel he influences your style.

Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 According to Stephanie, no one who posts here could be a worthwhile composer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airmanjerm 78 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Hi Jason, welcome to the forums, and yes there are a number of composers here. There are also those that specialize in music theory and often we all get into in-depth discussions about the theoretical aspects of JW's works (and others). Jump on in!

Glóin the Dark 1,218 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Stephanie has clearly overlooked the fact I've been posting here, as I am indubitably a composer. How else to account for the four existing notes of my future magnum opus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 But, to give a serious answer, ignoring Stefania's malarkey, there are at least four fairly regular posters besides myself that I'm aware of who compose in some significant capacity. Sharky, Ludwig, tedfud, and I believe filmmusic. Marcus and Karelm also, as well as others I'm sure I'm forgetting who aren't around as much. airmanjerm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airmanjerm 78 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 I miss your contributions, airman!Thanks Sharky, I still pop in frequently but stay quite busy so I don't get to jump into discussions these days as much as I'd often like. But, to give a serious answer, ignoring Stefania's malarkey, there are at least four fairly regular posters besides myself that I'm aware of who compose in some significant capacity. Sharky, Ludwig, tedfud, and I believe filmmusic. Marcus and Karelm also, as well as others I'm sure I'm forgetting who aren't around as much.You can count me in on that Pilgrim, since it's how I earn my living and all.

Dixon Hill 4,232 Posted July 18, 2014 Share Posted July 18, 2014 Ah ha, sorry about that. I wasn't sure, but your comment about one of your arrangements being played at the Capitol Fourth concert made me suspect something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
