Creating a Contrasting Section

For the B part of my composition I wanted more of a rhythmic drive. I wanted the whole section to be focused on short rhythmic motifs rather than long legato phrases. I then added in a semi-legato melody to give it some direction after some great feedback from my teacher. The following tracks show my improvisation to create the material as well as some of the final audio on Sibelius.

I am a student at Sydney Conservatorium of Music studying a Bachelor of Music (Education). I major in Classical Voice however throughout my studies I have practiced using a variety of pitched and non-pitched percussion, piano, guitar, and most recently; trumpet. Throughout my studies I've not only learnt how to encourage my future students to have an appreciation for music but have also extended my own appreciation and passion for music through exposure to a variety of new ways to express my musicality and experience music (predominately through technology and unique ensemble opportunities). Let's move away from "theory" vs "prac" structured lessons and adopt a more hands-on approach to music education. For a creative subject we should be teaching and learning about it in a creative way!
