Back in 1990, my group and I did a concert with 500 people listening. It was broadcast live on a local radio. Someone recorded it on audio cassette. I found it and I am publishing a song here. I apologize for the sound quality. The group was called Embargo and the first song of the concert, Ithaca, was dedicated to the mythical Ulysses on his return to Ithaca and the famous archery competitionā¦

I donāt like Oasis ā¦ but you canāt say that England hasnāt created good musicians (I donāt understand much about pictorial art ā¦ the painter of the family is my sister http://www.manuelasimoncelli.it/) ā¦ They are not to my taste, but they exist. For example, I only love Italian jazz ā¦ again for my tastes Americans are too technical and not very melodic. While Italian jazz musicians make music full of poetry, just listen to Fresu, Pieranunzi and many others.
And here is my first job in the new recording studioā¦ I realized that playing in a new place is like wearing new shoesā¦ I feel a little uncomfortableā¦
I recorded this song for a presentation video of a company that produces wedding dressesā¦ it was not acceptedā¦ I canāt put the video for copyright but I put a frameā¦
Thanks. I agree! But you should watch the videoā¦ itās in black and white and the beautiful dancerās movements are in slow motion in many places, so a more ācheerfulā music wouldnāt have suited the tempos. The black and white already gives a feeling of melancholy, I wasnāt able to āfeelā a different compositionā¦
It was an advertisement for luxury wedding dresses.
I found a photo of the concert!!! What fantastic memoriesā¦ it was the distant year 1990ā¦ Yamaha CP 70-b electro-acoustic piano and Korg DSS-1 keyboardā¦
Note the keyboard stand and the stoolā¦ In those days in Bologna there were music festivals every month. and in one evening even 4 groups playedā¦ so there was no time to set up and set up so many thingsā¦ what wonderful memoriesā¦
Slowly, slowly, maybe Iām finding my wayā¦ After composing and recording the music for the commercial video (not accepted), I worked on another piece staying in that genre. I find it really fun to work with the orchestra, recording instrument by instrument (as suggested by @Aethermindā¦Thanks) and āplayingā with my little knowledge of harmony. This will improve my old ear (I hope) and my musical knowledgeā¦ Iāll start from here.
Iām working on the endingā¦ but I would like some feedback and advice from OUR experts. Thanks

Hi @Lanfranco, I will certainly have a close listening to your part writing in this piece. And, kudos on your new path of more āanalyticalā composition!
I started another piece in the āsoundtrackā genreā¦ Iām having a lot of fun āplayingā with an orchestraā¦ Obviously with all my limitations. I decided this morning to sign up to SIAEā¦ Iāll never earn a penny (or euro ) with Music, but trying doesnāt cost muchā¦
Thank you very much. Iām looking into it, but obviously I would have to regress from SIAE. Iāll think about it for a few days and then Iāll decide whether to change.
Another āCinematicā style track But having played with real guitarists I miss a guitar played by a humanā¦ I wonder if the good @riban will record my partā¦
Unfortunately my idea of āāglobal collaboration here in the forum, did not succeedā¦
I am probably not as good (a thrash guitarist) as you have managed here! . (Partly because I spend far too much time coding and far too little time playing!!!) If you publish the part (score, MIDI, whatever) then maybe someone might have a bash at it. I suspect that wonāt be meā¦ but you never know.
) with Music, but trying doesnāt cost muchā¦
