Projects in Composition II

This course is designed for all composers, songwriters, and music majors who want to learn composition or who are actively composing music. In this course students receive instruction in music composition (acoustic and/or electronic) at the intermediate level. Students create a portfolio of music in any style or genre. The method of composition can be either score-based in musical notation or through electronic music production. Students create new music, present their work to colleagues, reflect and respond to one another, discuss musical processes, craft, techniques, and approaches. The focus is on developing a daily compositional practice, discovering your own musical voice, and creating a lifelong musical compositional practice.
