Composition (POST 8)

I have been working on my piece for concert band for several weeks now. It has been going very well. I have about 3 minutes of music.

Some goals for this week

- Fill in texture. Try orchestrating some of the parts that are played by only one type of instrument.

- Develop the theme more. Right now my piece is sort of repetitive. I could take some of the material I have and really write some counter subjects that would contrast well with the themes that are present.

- Try and graph out my levels of tension. On a scale of one to ten, so far the piece only reaches about a 5 in tensions levels. This could be something that I could use to give the music more direction
