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.”:

 

 

Think about using a percussion or small instrumentation beginning, no more than 10 seconds in length

 

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)

 

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.

 

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
