For aspiring musicians dreaming of apprenticing with a professional soundtrack and music composer, Secret Composer brings a new spin to music education software. Secret Composer unveils “behind the music” techniques, tricks and musical secrets that working composers use every day. Filling a huge gap in the music software market, Secret Composer helps composers translate their creative ideas into fully orchestrated music.
Co-creator Gary Guttman, a Hollywood composer for over 25 years, comments: “We cover numerous musical styles, from rock and classical to film/drama, jazz and urban music. Our interactive composition software combines animated lessons with audio files, music scores and detailed analysis to demonstrate how to create specific musical emotions. Secret Composer helps composers close the gap between what they’re feeling and how to express it.” Co-creator and software designer Greg Miller explains, “Secret Composer runs in your web browser, so you can dive right into the musical learning experience without worrying about mastering new software.”
“Secret Composer is actually two programs in one,” Miller points out. “It’s a music composition guide and a reference manual. The composition guide contains fast-paced, interactive composition lessons, and the reference manual contains musical information relevant to the composition guide. These two programs interact seamlessly.”
Curious musicians can visit the Secret Composer web site to hear examples of some of Secret Composer‘s music and test drive a demo of the program. Within the demo, you will be able to click on a score segment, launch an animated score, start an animated tutorial or link to related topics and definitions. The site’s composers’ blog provides interactive discussions that supplement Secret Composer‘s extensive composition, theory and orchestration materials.
With offices in New York and Los Angeles, Secret Composer LLC is committed to creating software that informs as well as entertains. “Many students, as well as experienced performers, feel lost when attempting to actually write music,” explains co-creator Gary Guttman. “Secret Composer‘s lessons have been designed to ease the composing process regardless of your level of musicianship.”
