Throughout the course you will engage in activities to trial and shape musical ideas and develop new skills in composing, improvising and arranging to help you understand how music is constructed.
Your research and experiments will be applied to your own work, paying attention to:
the intention and purpose of music in context
the use of musical elements, including, but not limited to, duration, dynamics, harmonic and/or melodic developments, pitch, rhythm, structure and form, texture, timbre, tonality
use of production elements and techniques.
You will submit 3 related recordings of experiments in the form of audio files (5 minutes)
identify and respond to musical prompts and
stimuli
experiment with unfamiliar elements
apply findings to inform the experimentation process
make musical decisions to develop practical work.
Regular notes of the experimentation process
Audio/video recordings of the process of experimentation
Evidence of experiments in diverse local and global musics and less familiar or unfamiliar styles
