Composing with Constraints: 100 Practical Exercises in Music
Composition provides an innovative approach to the instruction of
the craft of music composition based on tailored exercises to help
students develop their creativity. When composition is condensed to
a series of logical steps, it can then be taught and learned more
efficiently. With this approach in mind, Jorge Variego offers a
variety of practical exercises to help student composers and
instructors to create tangible work plans with high expectations
and successful outcomes. Each chapter starts with a brief note on
terminology and general recommendations for the instructor. The
first five chapters offer a variety of exercises that range from
analysis and style imitation to the use of probabilities. The
chapter about pre-compositional approaches offers original
techniques that a student composer can implement in order to start
a new work. Based on lateral thinking, the last section of the book
fosters creative connections with other disciplines such as math,
visual arts, and architectural acoustics. The one hundred exercises
contain a unique set of guidelines and constraints that place
students in a specific compositional framework. These compositional
boundaries encourage students to produce creative work within a
given structure. Using the methodologies in this book, students
will be able to create their own outlines for their compositions,
making intelligent and educated compositional choices that balance
reasoning with intuition.
