[QUOTE="Davy, post: 77180553, member: 404357"] I'm retired, played guitar for around 40 years, have a certificate from Berklee (Boston) School of Music in Composition for Film and TV, and at present study with M.I.T.A. (Musical Interval Theory Academy). About all I do now is try to write orchestral pieces for submitting to music libraries. I studied music theory for years, used Peter Alexander's freshman-sophmore Harmony texts. Then I studied Jazz from various book sources after that. At one time I was able to play Jazz chord melody style on my guitar, until arthritis set in. So now it's just writing in Finale, or StaffPad and using Cubase. M.I.T.A. has become my goto 'thing' that I've looked for a long time. I'm no longer interested in writings simple songs, nor Jazz tunes, etc. Those things aren't enough to 'feed' my artistic itch. With interval theory, you learn to use all 12 notes of the Major scale, not just the 7 notes only. Diatonic theory is still used, but thinking in intervals covers a much wider range of possibilities.
