Fruity Loops / Sonar Home Studio

SONG COMPOSITION PROJECT
Create your own song using AB form
*Your final project from this assignment will be a 1 ˝ to 2 minute length original song using
Fruity Loops or Cakewalk*
Using correct form writing, your song SHOULD INCLUDE the following different sections or “parts.”:
INTRODUCTION
Think about using a percussion or small instrumentation beginning, no more than 10 seconds in length
A SECTION
Use this part to create your general musical idea. Think of this as your “main melody”
It is also considered to be the “verse” section of a song (verse & refrain)
B SECTION
This section should be different from the A section in which you will return to this section again-keeping the same theme.
This section is also referred to as the “chorus” part or “refrain” part in a song.
C SECTION (OPTIONAL, but preferred)
This section is a “break away” from both sections. It generally contains a “solo” section or a possible percussion break.
This section usually occurs once in a song.
**Once completed, save project as a fruity loop file or Cakewalk Bundle
