There are soooo many ideas and so many things that can be done with music...I think I kinda wanna focus on writing string quartet, well just strings in general really ...
Between listening to and watching videos of Ebony Quartet (i am not gonna write the French name because I can't say it, I can barely spell it and I don't know where to find those other letters with accents over em and stuff) and Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, Chris Thile, and Stuart Duncan play I really feel like the ideas are endless. I'm really excited to try some stuff...
I used to think I was limited by particular numbers of instruments and types and stuff like quartet is only 4 strings, there are no drums and in my mind finding a way to arrange pop music in a way that is authentic to the styles of my songs and what not was a challenge...(long run on sentence and i'm not gonna edit it)...
Anyway...I am excited that there are so many different things I can do...I love the research part of writing, it doesn't stifle creativity it just opens up your ears and puts other stuff in you to expand your compositional palette.
I'm sleepy.
lol.
