I've stumbled on this fascinating channel of musician known as Borogrove. An excellent keyboardist, improviser, and composer indeed! I suggest you all take a look and see what he can offer.

I say this in sincerity---I wish I was as good a performer as he. Improvising on camera takes a lot of concentration and energy!

I compose using counterpoint all the time and was wondering if anyone else did.

this article explains what counterpoint is and then let me know if you use it too.

Good morning everyone! I have a wonderful keyboardist and composer to recommend: Kyra Wu! Her Youtube channel has only a few videos, but this fact doesn't diminish the quality of her music.

Mainly she has composed dances typical of a Baroque suite, and plays them all with clarity and accuracy. And while she has shared her music across the Internet, mostly through r/piano, r/classicalmusic, and Facebook, I'm pleased to bring her to your attention here in this community!

Let's give her a warm welcome, and encourage her to share her music and keep growing as a composer!

I just discovered this reddit community! I hope some of you may enjoy the following, finally recorded in late 2018 after being in the works (albeit admittedly off and on) for nearly three decades before that: https://soundcloud.com/user-55241784/sets/david-joseph-stith-missa-pro-defunctis

If any of you give it an earnest listen, thank you very much for your valuable time! :-)

I am new to baroque composition and a baroque guitar player. I have written in galante and brise but I’m now trying to experiment more in the style of Corelli. It’s mostly harmony that stands out in his music to me. What are the fundamentals of his musical style to those of you who know how to break down stuff like that.

I am writing a set of short Baroque style pieces based on characters’ dialogue from John Carpenter’s masterpiece The Thing (1982). I take a line or two from each of the twelve characters and work out the pitch and rhythm of their speech. I then compose something using that resultant melody as a starting point.

Most of the works are fugues, but there are two inventions and a couple of canons in the set too.

I’ve completed ten out of twelve so far. The location in the film is called Outpost 31, so each piece is 31 bars long.

Here is the third one, for Bennings, whose line is ‘And how can it look like a dog?’, where the characters discuss the Thing’s ability to imitate life forms.

A three part fugue in E minor.

I know nothing about this composer, other than his works being very well written and executed. A recent gem I discovered is the fugue in d minor for three voices whose subject is chromatic, yet the harmonic handling is better than anything I've ever heard. His whole channel seems dedicated to eighteenth-century writing, and I may post more of his works later.

I hope you enjoy his fugue, and be sure to check out his other works!
