How I Begin A New Work
11In this demonstration, I show you how I begin a new work. Using syntax I have experimented with in SuperCollider, I build a score that include synths, audio files, tempo, and code for MIDI messages. Material includes audio files and/or MIDI instruments I have tweaked in Logic Pro. I work extensively in Patterns, in particular, Pbindef. Audio files are recorded in SC and put in Audacity. Once exported as WAV files, they will go directly to Logic Pro.
My music usually includes a percussion section, bass, harmony, embellishments, and melody. In recent years, I have reserved melody for last. No instrument is beyond excessive experimentation. As a composer, I'm intuitive. I start a piece with a sound or idea I'm attracted to and work from there.
