More Information
Many musicians feel they don’t know how to compose. Where to begin? Experienced
composers often feel ”stuck” — out of ideas or perspective on how to develop an idea they have. Visiting instructor Michele Rosewoman demonstrates that all you need is
a starting point and just about any will do. Students begin new compositions and
receive guidance on realizing their unique personal preferences and how to apply them to the process of composing. Students learn practical approaches to developing their ideas and how to further the conception of their individual pieces. Instructor utilizes recorded music to discuss and convey compositional goals and effects, and demonstrates methods for adjusting, elaborating upon and extending musical thought through melodic, harmonic and rhythmic possibilities and thematic development. Students are also invited to bring in compositions for feedback. Students should bring their instruments, music paper and a recording device. For all levels.
