Beethoven exercise help

• May 2, 2013 - 23:45

I am currently working on an original musical piece. In order to help me master some basic compositional skills, I am copying various fragments of works by Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven; I use them as exercises by notating the fragments using MuseScore.

I have notated most of a fragment from Beethoven's Piano Sonata in F minor, Op. 2, No. 1, which consists of measures 1 to 8. All I have left blank was the last measure, which I currently don't know how to notate using the current version of MuseScore.

I would have liked to attach a couple of files to this post for further help, but I keep getting HTTP errors every time I do so. There seems to be a glitch at the forums affecting the attachment of files.

Any suggestions?

I got an "HTTP error 0", which I have no idea what it means. But I do know I am using the latest version of Google Chrome on a Windows XP.

We must get to the bottom of solving this bug issue before I can do anything else in this topic. Maybe further discussion should belong in the "support and bug reports" forum, if appropriate.

Testing attachment using Chrome...

OK, that worked. So, at what point do you see this error? When you select the file to attach, when you hit the "Attach" button after selecting the file, or when hitting "Save" to actually post? Is the file one of the allowed file files? Best would be MSCZ to show the actual score as you have it thus far, or PNG to show a graphic of what you are trying to achieve.

Easiest way to palace grace notes is to enter the main note first, then double click the appropriate ae note icon in the palette. To add multpiple grace notes, just repeat those steps - that is, you need to go back and re-select the note after adding the first grace note.

Once you've added the grace notes, they will beam automatically if appropriate, and then you you can click them one at a time and arrow them up or down to produce the pitches you want.
