Week Ten - Getting back on track5/5/2024 This week was mainly just getting back on track and getting a feel for where I need to be over the coming days and a week or two. I’ve got an idea for how I want to close out the piece, which will get me to my measure goal, and I think it will sound good. I want to restate the first main melody of the piece to close it out, however, there will be a key change right before it, which I think will be the hardest part of closing it out. I have to figure out what I want the key to be, and how I want to lead into it. I want there to be a tension and release moment for the key change, kind of as a way to signal the change as well as the end of the piece as it approaches. I have a wedding to go to next weekend, which will cut down on my time, however, I think I can still do it. After that, I just have to work on the final presentation, and I’ll have to figure out how I want to execute that. I’ll likely end up going back through the process in a general sense, describing the parts of the process, my thoughts through each part, and what I got done and how. I think I can fill the 6-8 minute requirement for the presentation with everything that I have done for this project. The project itself has been fun and has given me a new level of respect for the composers who write the music that is played by bands everywhere. Music can turn into an extremely deep rabbit hole very quickly and can be very difficult to understand. Making music work and sound good is a tedious process, and even just coming up with what you want to write can be a whole thing all by itself. Closing out this project will be fun, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it sounds.
