Music Composition Programming

The Music Composition Programming Course instructs students on the process of capturing and developing new musical ideas. By utilizing skills learned in the prerequisite Music Theory and Musical Listening and Identification Courses, students transcribe their melodies and bass lines into musical notation with music composition software and learn to develop their ideas using various compositional methods. Loop-based sequencing with professional audio software programs are utilized to provide each student with a powerful set of music content creation tools.
