Wednesdays – timetable
What will you do during these lessons if you
are not recording?
Planning/preparing “sketches” for
composition
4. Brief – paragraph 4 (this need only be a short
paragraph)
Think about the features in your piece that
you will use in your composition. This could
be: structure, harmony, techniques (should
include techniques, just don’t talk too much
about it)
WHY will you use them? (Effective in giving
character to piece? Good use of the
instrument? Etc
5. Which particular techniques are you going to
use?
Singers – what set of words will you choose?
How does this relate to your song?
What will the mood/style of your piece be and
how will you use your instrument to achieve
this?
6. Style? Perhaps influenced by your
composition? Eg Blues, jazz, classical (?), or
simply just a flute and piano piece etc
Structure and keys
Melodic ideas? 2-4 bar opening phrase?
Accompaniment? Chords? Style of
accompaniment?
