About this Unit
In 2018 this unit replaced by 102548 - Composition and Creativity. This unit provides students with a firm grasp of and practical experience in the range of compositional techniques and skills required as a composer within a range of commonly-employed artistic media and genres. These skills will provide the basis for professional compositional activity. Students will cover issues at a theoretical level through lectures and tutorials, and in a practical fashion through assigned composition exercises and collaborations with musicians.
