Aw, the work of a n00b...
Well, I've been trying to transpose "Main Theme" from Morrowind by Jeremy Soule (serious or for kicks? IDK). It's still incomplete (bout 2 of 3 minutes) and there are some things I need to add, ie supporting chords and markings for accents, dynamics, ect, and the last ten measures have no right hand lmao. It's pretty shitty, but I thought I would share my WIP. (Lol, it's 69 measures so far. Pervy. xD)
Click this to listen!
It's actually a recording of what I have in Finale NotePad, so it's not a recording-recording. Just a midi. If you want to hear the original piece, then click this goddamn link.
I don't really like the intensity that I have starting at the fifth measure. That was a failure attempt at capturing the cellos. Still so much to work on. I hope to finish this before we go to Cali next Saturday. : D
Thanks for listening...if you did.

Oh my, I would love some sheets!
Hey, anyone know where I can find (free or for purchase) sheet music for Oblivion and Morrowind, Jeremy Soule pieces? Instruments are flute, piano, and recorder. I already have Shade Music Studios bookmarked, which has one transcription for Oblivion. It's a little POTC-y, but still very nice. However, I do love many more of Soule's TES pieces, and I decided to name my favourites. : D

From Morrowind: Call of Magic (title theme, most just call Morrowind), Main Theme (not the title song, travel theme), Ending Theme (travel theme)

From Oblivion: Reign of the Septims (title theme, most just call Oblivion), Through the Valleys (travel theme), Harvest Dawn (town theme), King and Country (travel theme), Wings of Kynareth (travel theme), Mistrel's Lament (town theme), Auriel's Ascension (I think travel theme, not in Xbox360 ver, my absolute fav!), Sunrise of Flutes (town theme)

And, of course, if you find it for a different instrument, I can transpose. Solos are great. xD If you don't have any, that's okay.

Am I willing to pay for these? Well, not a lot. I can get a professional transposer for $30 per hour and that's the cheapest I know, and I don't have a thousand dollars! So, I will pay small amounts for pre-made sheets ONLY if I hear an EXACT recording of the arrangement.

Life News
~DingoMutt and I played Trauma Center: New Blood for...gee, 7 or 8 hours today, lol! A few breaks (one to bathe her poor rat) but, really, it was a surgery spree. And we beat it. On easy, yeah, but that is such a fuckin' hard game. -sucks at videogames- We plan to run through it again in several months on normal and later on hard. We couldn't make it through the bonus extreme levels...or the GUILT+Stigma simulation. Damn, Dr. Stiles, you kick ass. He's not as pretty in that game (still small orgasms), but it's been ten years. That's okay, because Dr. Vaughn is orgasmic too.

For more updates on what I'm doing (I'll be posting this stuff less and less here) please visit my Twitter! Please, it's so lonely. ,_,

Art Feature of the Moment
Midnight Sun Book Cover by ~Kasihime
The details in the piece are absolutely spot on and Kasihime was really able to embody the characters. This really does the series justice and if the fifth book should ever be published, this should definitely be the cover.
(translation: I LOL'D)

It was unclear in the journal. You didn't say the words "I play. . ." Anyway, I play clarinet and some piano.

Hey there. c: I have such a hard time finding sheet music myself, so I'm not much of a help there. :/

I have a twitter, too. :) 'digitized_flame'

I'm not great at transposing, but hopefully after my Music Theory class, I'll be able to transpose some solos and stuff.

Well, now that I've lost my super passion for music, I don't think I'll be doing any serious transposing and taking extra classes and shit. Well, I might want to be DM (I'm DI for this coming year! yay!), but, meh, I think I'll just stay in the concert band in college...not like I would MAKE the symphonic band. -no self confidence-
