Just looking at Icy Steps, is there any particular reason why you wrote it on 3 staves instead of 2? (I'm not sure which software you used, so possibly a software limitation?) I think it would be easier to read if it was on 2 staves and made use of layering. You don't usually see 3 staves throughout a whole piece of piano music and when it is used, it is used sparingly and only for the section it's needed for. After that it returns to two staves. You wouldn't see a third staff being empty for so long.

One or two accuracy things:
-Bar 10, bottom staff: The B should be moved up a 4th to an E.
-Bar 12, bottom staff: I don't thiiiiink the F# is repeated in this bar?
-Bar 12, middle staff: The 4th beat should be a crotchet C#
-Bar 14, bottom+middle staff: I guess you could write it this way. I'd personally lean towards the way I mentioned for bar 10. Either way, whatever you choose, bar 10 and bar 14 should look the same.
-The same applies for the next section when the melody comes in as the accompaniment just repeats itself.


Edit: Silly me, I forgot to say: Welcome to Hotel NSM, I hope you enjoy your stay! I trust you'll find it quite comfortable and if you need anything, Zeta will attend to all your needs.

Yes, the 3rd stave was a software limitation,(the whole notes couldn't be put with the 2nd stave for some reason, and I couldn't not have them.) I've listened to it again, and i'm 99% sure thats how its supposed to be in Bar 12, and I don't understand it either. Ive fixed the other things though, and thank you for the feedback!

[The Deku Trombonist]

Ah right. Which program are you using?

And I just had another listen to the YT link you provided and beat 4 of bar 12 should definitely just be a crotchet C#

[Bradenjb12]

I use Flat.io which is free, therefore it isnt the best. i'm going to try and get something like finale, but ill have to wait a bit.
Also i dont understand what you mean by crotchet C# in measure 12

You should use musescore (free) for now, but forewarning: Musescore isn't exactly compatible to NSM's format unless you do a bunch of conversions. If you ever want to arrange something for the main site, use Finale Notepad.

(also if you ask around, some of the other members *might* have cracked copies of Finale, but don't take my word on it)

Also i dont understand what you mean by crotchet C# in measure 12

It's also called a quarter note in the States.

[Bradenjb12]

ohhhh that makes a lot more sense

[Bradenjb12]

Did it update the music?

[The Deku Trombonist]

Yep, looks better
