Is this what you meant?

|===============|==============|===============|
|--exposition --|-development--|-recapitulation|
|---------------|--------------|---------------|
|---something---|---something--|---original----|

this could be reduced to:
A A' A
or
A B A

further developments within the three basic sections:

or

thanks, nice work.

i did not mean the sonata form specifically, but an adaption of the that basic ternary type form. maybe it could better be thought of as a rounded binary. A BA. something like that.

Not to discourage you,
but to call yourself a Music Producer..

First you'll need to be able to call yourself a Musician, and that takes considerable Time/Study/Practice..
this will take you at least 5 to 10 years, to a complete life-time of Intense/focused Study and Dedication..

(and that means understanding/knowing by heart a big/major part of Theory/Harmony,
and getting yourself a proper musical Culture..)

Then to call yourself a Composer or Producer, it will take you at least another 5-10 years more,
first effectively Composing and Producing your own stuff..

And then getting to the point you become a Professional that Composes/Produces stuff for other ppl/clients or whatever Media..

I wouldn't call myself a Professional until making money/living out of it,
and not once but in a steady/regular form..

And I'm telling you, after +20 years as a dedicated musician/guitarist,
15 of them professionally involved in one way/another..

And 12 years Composing/Producing stuff for Audiovisual Media, and Videogames..
Now I can call myself a Beginner to Medium experienced Music Producer, in the specific field/styles I work in..

That's how difficult it is

But yeah in essence, I'd say is better to restrain from putting Labels to oneself so easily/happily..

We all want to Be something,
but I think you need to be doing it first to a certain and demonstrable degree.

For instance I wouldn't call myself a "Beginner Programmer",
just because I can put a basic/crappy html page together with Frontpage,
or know a few Super-Basic things about programming in C/Python or whatever..
(or simply because I've got the interest)

But by all means, this is Not to discourage you,
keep Learning, and keep Practicing!

does not want: to think.

wants: other people to do all the work.

wants: to collect all the money.

sounds like a producer to me.
