• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

    In order to post a new topic - or reply to existing ones - you may join and become a member by clicking on Register New User. It's completely free and only requires a working email address (in order to confirm your registration - it will never be given away!). We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

your site

Hello

I have visited your site. Your home page is difficult to understand, you should rather give this link : http://alberofv.altervista.org/Musica_ieri.htm
and explain us to click on the number "2" in the link "Musica 1 2".

there are very nice music at your page http://alberofv.altervista.org/t3.htm

but you should delete absolutely in your page Musica 1 your album "Ritratti", it is horrible and your visitors will leave your site if it is the first thing they hear.

About your organ music, the direct link is http://alberofv.altervista.org/ppo_index.htm

First I have think there were only the PDf scores. In fact there are alsothe MP3 but it is not well explained.
I have listened to your 6 organ pieces. There are interesting. the one I prefer is "Groberus".
But your organ sound is allways the same from the begining to the end of the album. I think you should try using MyOrgan as I do myself, your organ work will be certainly more pleasant to listen.

Thank you so much.
But excuse for my strange and bad english, first.

Your are right for all. The page "Ritratti" is about my Commodore C64' works of many years ago. For this reason is here. My "story" start from that point...:eek:

About the organ pages, the sound is the same because I have used the internal synth of FinaleNotepad, just to realize the work and so on. Simple.
My usual sound banks not are the same. I use VST modules in Samplitude Music Studio, or soundfonts, as you can ear in 2005-2008 works...

These OrganPages come from me that I don't have classical study or similar in my background (or "frontground"). The previous work similar are the C64 works, note by note...
With this think I don't want to tell you "I'm genious"... no, of course. I'm a simple hobbyst, instead of cigarettes, wine, discoteques, drugs... I'm writing music.... Is all.
Thank you.

I have not had the chance to follow musical studies too.
Your music is nice, only the organ sound is a little unpleasant because it is allways the same.

please, listen to my cantilene in this forum and see what can be done with sampled organ sounds. I use for this music : MyOrgan (a midi virtual Organ), midiOx (a midi virtual link) and SIR (a VSt reverb). All these softwares are free.
I do not use finale notepad but Harmony-assistant (myriad), but i think you can also use Myorgan with notepad if finale notepad has a midi output.

If you want, send me one of your organ score as a midifile, and i'll record it with my sounds.

I'd not waste my time with Finale Notepad, its capabilities are far too limiting for my needs, it's just a shame it's so f.....g expensive. I'm not upgrading again, have 2007, and it suits my needs.

I used to have one of those computers a long time ago. Commodore64.
Yes and they had synthesizers in them and hooked up on your television.
I remember. No wonder Musicali couldn't understand. It was written
in Italian.

Those CD64s were certainly wonderful for games and music. I used to love to play the Olympic Winter games. Even way back then, I always picked Canada as the country of my player, cuz I loved it when they would play the National Anthem.

I upgraded from 2007 to 2008. The only change is in the way everything works. Functions that were straight forward are now complicated and nothing is in the same place anymore.:(
