@kit-christopher and I were chatting recently, and decided we are going to try and golf some etudes for tidal to help improve our real time melody composition/syntax/shortcut game.
I think it'd be great to see how other people see these patterns represented in code too, we might be able to develop some new methods/shortcuts etc 
I'm keeping my results here:
Starting simple - First 8 bars of "In May" by Franz Behr:
-- In May - Franz Behr
d1 $ stack [
arp "down" $
n "<c6'maj d6 c6'maj d6 [c6 d6 e6] [f6 e6 d6] [e6 d6 c6] d6>"
, arp "up" $
n "<[c5'maj] [b4,f,g]>"
] # s "superpiano"
[edit] golfed it a bit, fixed a mistake
Thankyou! I will - I got all gee'd up to do a few of these then my spare time ran out...
I'll take a look at it this week hopefully
