Hi wljmrbill,
Thanks very much for the feedback! I really value comments by you knowledgeable artists. You perked me up when I saw the response.
Strangely since I've been sequencing for decades, when I put all the p f ff fff and so on in the score, it sounds more human than some of my older sequences.
I'm glad I figured out the technique to make the score playing into a movie though, my whole intention is to help people learn music, and this way they surely get to see what notation means what. Diverse, as I usual am, here are three more scores:

Scoring "You Are The Magic," this 9/8 waltz was funny to do in Finale. I originally tried just using 3/4 and putting triplets on various notes but it wouldn't stick. So I let Finale make the decision for me so I used 9/8. It's not the type of 9/8 of Debussy's Arabesque #1 which is written in 9/8 but fluctuates the tempo, "You Are The Magic" is truly a waltz. ps this was written in 2004, just before I started learning classical music.
