Debate topic for next Tuesday: Are cannons truly valid instruments for an orchestra? Or should they be replaced with something safer, like Tesla coils?

Quote from: Dekkadeci on April 23, 2017, 03:26:32 PMHowever, the last 2 melody notes of Bar 32 (G-Bb) sound incorrect to me--according to 0:45-0:46 of the video, they should be E-G instead.
I listened, and as long as you meant an En, you were right. I also noticed a couple staccato markings that were out of place, so I fixed those, too. Files updated.

Correct--by E, I meant E natural.

The notes look good, but right now, the sheet isn't too much to talk about visually. I went ahead and did some major formatting changes for you, as well as spruced up some of those dynamics and articulations; you're welcome to change anything I have but I think what I have is a little more accurate to the original. You're free to use these files in place of the ones you have currently uploaded:

[MIDI] [MUS] [PDF]

There's still some things to consider though as you continue with this one, namely the harmonies. While most of the song's harmony is outlined in the really fast mallet part in the background, there are still ways to incorporate those harmonies in other parts. For example, in m29-35, you could include the extra harmonies in the RH on some of half notes or quarter notes. Good spots imo would be m29 beats 1 & 3, m30 beat 2, etc.

In m5-20, you could include some harmony in the LH part, though you'll want to be careful in replacing notes or redesigning the current LH part. Do what you think would sound good, and it's definitely a helpful idea to sit down with your sheet and try playing it on a real piano or keyboard if you have one and try testing it out.

Great job so far! This is really coming along.

Thanks, Static! The formatting was really starting to bother me.

Thanks for the files! I'll probably put them in tomorrow because they definitely are better. (Well, the midi is. I can't go on my computer until tomorrow, so I'm assuming the mus is good.) I'm just confused by what you mean in the quote box. Could you elaborate a little, if it's not too much trouble.

Your MUS link is messed up and I can see the problem when I quote the text. The link says Dropbox . co instead of Dropbox . com. With .co, it says there is no webpage. With .com, it takes me to Dropbox, but says that there is no file.

Coming from you, that's huge! Especially considering the fact that you seem to be the number one Kirby person on-site. Are there even any others? (Besides me. I like to think of myself as a Mario, Zelda, and Kirby guy, with a bit of Smash, Wario, and Yoshi mixed in.)

Latios and Dekka are Kirby fans, too.

Forgot about Dekka. Sorry Dekka! Didn't really know about Latios, though.

I was looking at who's online, saw your name, and thought, 'Wait, isn't Alti a Kirby fan, too?'.
