I'm not an expressionist but not quite an impressionist. I don't really express myself in my music. Yes, I put some of my current emotions in my works, but not always. I usually use a modern touch of heavy distorted guitars or basses, sawtoothes and squares [keyboard effects for those who didn't know], harpsicord, along with many "old style" instruments such as timpani and viola, flutes and similar. My works are instrumental and DO NOT ENVOLVE ANY OUTSIDE EMOTIONS like love, hate or jealousy [those were for example - I almost never write scores with emotions]. The one's I DID inserted emotions in them are not quite my style and from my priority, they are almost last. Therefore, I am not an expressionit.
Most of my scores have a speed/power/melodic metal touch so they have a lot of complicated techniques. Though some of them are Funky, Jazzy and even Classical, they all have some point of complications. An unnamed score of mine is a classical and is at a speed of 300 BPM. It has a major work on the right hand but on the left is a little less job. The score is written for harpsicord ONLY, and uses techniques like grace notes (For those who are interested in this score [by the way, 7/10 people said it's a classical piece {3 of them were expert}, and 8/10 said it could have got very famous if it was written back at Mozart's, Bach's or Vivaldi's time] PM me. I would love some "outside" opinion about it). For conclusion, I'm not a very big experssionist nor an impressionist. [wow. WTF, I sat for 15 min writing this down "-.-]

Kaio-Leucitius i've been thinking. In music, artists are classified into genres that are based off of similarities in technique and feel. In visual art like paintings and sculpture, artists are classified by their goals. i learned that in both visual and music art i am very expressionist and sometimes immpressionist. Some people tell you that they dont classify music into genres but i believe that understanding why you do what you do can only help you. so rather than seeing ourselves as punk, metal, emo, hip hop etc we should try to see ourselves in a different view. Let's try to keep this thread alive by adding on visual artistic movements that apply to music aswell. here's my contribution. EXPRESSIONISM: The broad term that describes emotional art, most often boldly executed and making free use of distortion and symbolic or invented color. Expressionism is the art that is used to attempt to bare ones soul. IMPRESSIONISM: Impressionism in painting refers to a style that uses bold brush strokes to capture the escence of a subject without so much focus on detail or complicated technique. It is the artists immediate "impression" of something. So impressionism in music is often imitations of actual things. The band Pelican is somewhat impressionistic to me because their songs capture the feel of forces of nature. many impressionist musicians do not get enough credit because their music is so easy to learn and play. I'll add on later if this thread is still alive. Damn dude that's deep, anyways, my music is more... abstract, so i guess i'm in surrealism.
my music is mostly strange improvisation. i have some kind of detuning effect that i use for a few solos, very deep clean licks, and evil sounding distorted riffs

I'll add on later if this thread is still alive. A bit of both, actually. I use symbolism in most of my songs, and Impressionism in others. It's really about the mood, and style, you're going for, right? Isn't that it, in essence?
