Book excerpt: "Music Composition 1" is the first book in a two book series by award-winning composer, Jonathan Peters, which explains how music is formed and how to compose your own music. Book 1 covers the study of rhythmic and melodic composition, while book 2 covers harmonic composition and compositional form.Each lesson covers a particular concept (or related concepts). Concepts and compositional techniques are demonstrated throughout the course with real musical examples (pictures and on-line audio samples).Each lesson also contains memory questions, access to on-line quizzes, listening assignments, and transcription/composition assignments. Memory questions serve to summarize and reinforce key concepts learned, while the quizzes tests the students' knowledge and understanding of the material from each lesson. Students who take this course will get practice transcribing music (hearing a rhythm or a melody and writing it down) and also learn how to use music notation software. In the composition assignments students will get real life practice using the information and techniques learned in each lesson to write their own rhythms and melodies.WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THIS COURSE? To receive free life-time access to the on-line audio samples and quizzes you must have a computer with internet connection, screen, and speakers.A basic knowledge of music theory: students who take this course should be able to read notes in treble and bass clef, understand note durations, meter, key, scales, flats, sharps, intervals (major, minor and perfect), chords (major and minor), chord inversions, tempo, dynamics, and articulations. If you do not already have a rudimentary understanding of music theory, it is recommended that you take a music theory course before this course.Some type of music notation software. The notation software demonstrated in this course is the Finale NotePad software. NotePad is a very basic music notation program and has all the necessary functions for a beginning composition student.

This software not only prints professional looking sheet music, it also allows the student to hear their compositions as they are writing them.
