The CRAZIEST Music Notation Song EVER. (Worse than Rush-E?!?)

[@heidisavoie]

Its especially precious to find an historically accurate rendering also

[@MusicWithStacey]

😅

[@deadbydebt]

Just as Bach dreamed the future would be

[@thendriaktagllimpher1613]

Delightful! The tension! The passion! Two lovers, riding horses in the moonlight, along the edge of the cliff, above the pounding waves, and then... one horse missteps and plunges over the edge while the other is seized by a pterodactyl! I can almost see it....

[@MusicWithStacey]

Ok the pterodactyl is a MUST

[@Pedsonc01]

Oh! thank God....I though it was just me who is off his metaphorical rocker

[@masterboa6321]

the mountain king bit absolutely broke me

[@MusicWithStacey]

Haha yes

[@Jovocale]

@@MusicWithStacey…I note that you render this piece perfectly… I didn’t hear any errors and the artistic interpretation was magnificent!! However, I thought it would have sounded better in the keys of C##, D##, F## and other ## keys! Lol!! Or rather…lol##

[@blackbirdgamingYT547]

Conductor breaks his arm" is crazy

[@MusicWithStacey]

RIGHT!? 😱

[@sparklegirl824]

That was my idea ;)

[@Pedsonc01]

Well, as a full-time physician and part-time composer, I think a broken arm, provided it is (a) very audible and (b) insanely painful, is a perfect metaphor for this wonderful masterwork!

[@LessThanScunions-it6tg]

I don't even know how you managed to write some this into musescore... regardless of whether it sounds "good" or "bad" this definitely took a lot technical skill in order to force musescore to play it! definitely lives up to the title 👍

[@MusicWithStacey]

Yes we collectively worked quite hard on it haha. The biggest notation problem was the bars that had more notes than would physically fit in a single line and yet a bar can't be divided in half into the next line so the notes are all jammed together like ants in a colony 🤣

[@wyattstevens8574]

​@@MusicWithStaceyI saw you comment on my "starting at 1:08 sounds oddly like a phone dialing sound," but were you talking to me or SparkleGirl?

[@wyattstevens8574]

1:08-1:14 (although I know it's "Hall of the Mountain King") sounds like someone dialing a phone number!

[@sparklegirl824]

I thought it sounded great!!!!

[@MusicWithStacey]

haha yes

[@FrogletOW]

you should do one where it's 3 4 on top and 4 4 on bottom

[@MusicWithStacey]

That's a great idea!

[@wolfe_864]

I think that's called a polymeter

[@Piotr-jx4bu]

My random impprovisation

[@kareyreuben3869]

That was absolutely wild and fun!

[@rubevanderwielen9323]

1:58 went unreasonably hard

[@MusicWithStacey]

Got to do a real Für Elise remix one of these days!

[@themarde]

This is absolutely great composition!

[@MusicWithStacey]

Thank you for listening!

[@maxenloteyro]

avant-garde musicians boutta look at this and say “light work”

[@MusicWithStacey]

I know a few 🤣😅

[@adamschmitt9480]

I felt that it was like the piano alternating between just warming up, then throwing a tantrum, then mocking me, toying with my emotions, and then it killed a puppy in front of me before asking (or demanding) me to marry it. I am so impressed.

[@MusicWithStacey]

wow!

[@flexbrionine10]

74/128 in 17th 💀

[@MusicWithStacey]

I KNOW RIGHT!? That student had lots of great ideas... or at least crazy ideas!

[@spocksmusic]

Shades of "Faerie's Aire and Death Waltz". I believe John Stump is smiling over this one (RIP).

[@Unkraut]

Was thinking that, I believe "Bring in the penguins" is a quote from one of his beautiful notation hellfests :D

[@sparklegirl824]

My teacher showed me that and i got a lot of ideas from that song

[@MusicWithStacey]

Yes that was definitely an inspiration over the last few decades!

[@Pedsonc01]

I played it at 0.25 and again at 2.0, and it sounds great at both metronome markings! But, I especially like the ghosts!

[@MusicWithStacey]

Such a great idea, can’t believe I didn’t think of it. And the ghost part is one of my favourites too 😅

[@snickpickle]

My son probably a dozen years ago found a piece called the "Death Waltz." This *iconic* piece reminds me of that "amazing" piece, featuring all 88 keys being played at once in rapid succession! Haha! I just wrote a piece that uses 128th notes (my first time ever writing something that fast), with a VERY abrupt gliss (lasting one 128th note) back into the chorus. Oh, how much fun we have with (in my case) MuseScore! Hahaha!

[@MusicWithStacey]

Yes that song [Fairie's Aire and Death Waltz] has been an inspiration for me and my students for years haha [and also for this song!]... a lot of fun and to be honest despite the madness it's a great way to get students interested in not just music but also music notation. Your 128th notes sound like fun too!

[@vhanzesp]

I am so confused by the text at the end. This IS actual music!

[@MusicWithStacey]

Haha thank you! You are a true connoisseur of the arts!

[@c651productions]

Tf are those time signatures 💀💀💀

[@toosmelly]

for me it was when it was 5000bpm in 128/2 time that i got annoyed

[@MusicWithStacey]

haha saaaaaame!

[@alancharles6789]

Pity Zappa wasn’t alive to hear it and admire its simplicity

[@MusicWithStacey]

You had me in the first half, not gonna lie 🤣

[@FedralBureau-Of-Investigation]

Measure 13 lookin like a geometry dash level 💀

[@MusicWithStacey]

Haha yes

[@ShaunDSheep12]

This is fine. 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@gamesofsteffen9159]

What is the song in the end? That song sounds nice.

[@MusicWithStacey]

It's from the EP Tropical Glow by Anastace - also me in a different life!

[@Thk10188965]

wow claiming this isn't actual music SMH My Head

[@MusicWithStacey]

We appreciate your vote of confidence 🤩

[@HANSMKAMP]

The crazier, the better!

[@MusicWithStacey]

Yesssssss

[@stchest]

Now play it on an actual piano

[@aplacetodock]

Whoa

[@MusicWithStacey]

Thank you- it was a lot of fun and we learned a lot too!

[@Cosmopolantic]

peak

[@MusicWithStacey]

🤓

[@williamroe8905]

why

[@MusicWithStacey]

😜

[@jaden-perry]

Damn haha

[@MusicWithStacey]

Yes we *might have gone a bit overboard but it was fun!

[@gregoryfenn1462]

Next grade 2 piano piece to learn

[@MusicWithStacey]

LOL! We wish you a ton of luck! 🍀

[@Jemanthapus]

74/128 is genius

[@MusicWithStacey]

Agree! It was an extra creative student who came up with that one 🎶

[@WARREN_9000]

show beetoven this

[@MusicWithStacey]

Would be so great!

[@peterlovmark1859]

Awsome

[@bennokathol3953]

AI ??

[@MusicWithStacey]

Not even one note. Created by a talented (?!) team of over 20 composers ie my students and I!

[@ThePoetRobin]

Tempo is 5000😂😂

[@MusicWithStacey]

I’m pretty sure the music software maxed out at 500 but we put the extra zero there just in case because it was fun and THEY DIDN’T STOP US

[@painter1955]

Hilarious!

[@MusicWithStacey]

Thanks! We had a blast creating it!

[@АлександрСкафандров]

Пианино по ступенькам)

[@sacdesable7971]

Sound like a manor in a marip game

[@MusicWithStacey]

Honestly I was surprised but I agree! I didn't know, when inputting strings of 64th notes, that it would turn out like that but some parts really do sound like a game...

[@seheyt]

manure*

[@MusicWithStacey]

lol!

[@fidel2xl]
