Context This thesis was completed in order to fulfill the requirements of the postgraduate research course towards the degree of Master of Philosophy from the University of Portsmouth, England. Is not available. A Process for Music Composition. Music composition is to music what writing a story is to literature, or painting a picture to art. It is the sharing of a “story,” no matter how abstract, between the composer, the performers, and the audience. I believe every musician should compose music. It changes your understanding of what music is, and lets you share your vision of music with the world. The Process Below are the steps I take to create a piece of music. It starts with an idea, and ends with a written score that can be shared with and interpreted by others. 1. Everything starts with an idea. Think about music you have heard or know, and see if you can think of new, different music. 2.
In order to create the most interesting, appropriate, and unique piece you can, do some research. What instrument(s) do they play? If its for yourself, consider what you know how to do, or what you want to be able to do by creating and playing the piece. Then, think about the style of music you intend to use. What instruments does it use? Musical composition. Musical composition can refer to an original piece of music, the structure of a musical piece, or the process of creating a new piece of music.
People who practice composition are called composers. Although today composition is considered to consist of the manipulation of each aspect of music (harmony, melody, form, rhythm, and timbre), according to Jean Benjamin de Laborde (1780): Composition consists in two things only. The first is the ordering and disposing of several sounds...in such a manner that their succession pleases the ear. This is what the Ancients called melody. Musical compositions[edit] A piece of music exists in the form of a composition in musical notation or as a single acoustic event (a live performance or recorded track).
Composition as musical form[edit] Composing music[edit] Methods Another method involves free playing of your desired instrument. As technology progresses, new and inventive methods of music composition come about. Structure Arranging[edit] In the U.S.
