II Stelmaria II I was improvising on piano after school at one point and a music teacher walked in. Naturally I was dragged into the head of the music department's office. I wasn't placed in music theory class, they had me work with my teachers after school and gave me books. Sort of an independent study thing. I have been told that it is possible to have talent for composition. I have also been told that tallent in music is possible it's just not what you expect. It's and instinct to put together pitches, tones, and emotions that offten seem too different to be music. I technically was never taught Jazz Improv, yet I am considered one of the best at school and have merrited in it. I have also been composing in my head with out a music theory class based on ear. Now I have books to guid me but I rearly touch them. Some have natural tallent they can feel the rythem, they know what pitches to use, they let the music flow through them. Others have to work at counting, chords, and getting the tone of a piece just right using musical structures. So in a way you are both right and wrong. There is one other thing that makes up an excelent composer, the ability to listen to not only the ears but the heart. Emotion is key to composition.
I agree with you, 100%. I couldn't really start composing beautiful meaningful pieces until I stopped listening to my head and started listening to my heart. Trying to force out a composition through your mind will not bring great music. Allowing it to just flow out of you is what makes beautiful music
