Assignment: Creative Project

Instructions

Section I

Choose a topic from the course (Music and Literature, Music and the Stage, Music and Art, etc.), then choose a theme within that topic. Discuss your reason for choosing this theme, how it fits into the topic of your choice, and the musical elements you will look for as you choose your repertoire.

Next, choose an instrument(s) you would like to focus on. In other words, will you build a recital for voice, for orchestra, string quartet, tuba, etc.? Discuss your reasoning. Section I should be about 600 to 700 words total.

Section II

Create a recital program (formatted as a list like this sample program ). Choose classical and popular music based on the topic, theme, and instrument you discussed in Section I. You must select some classical music to be included in your program. Also, include Spotify or YouTube links and times for each piece you choose. At the bottom of the list of pieces, include the total time of the music. Section II should include at least 60 minutes of music.

Example

1. Piece 1-Erlking, by Schubert, 4:14 YouTube Video "Schubert - Der Erlkönig [??] (complete version.)".

2. If you are only using one movement from a larger work, and the YouTube video is the entire work, be sure to list the exact times of the music you wish to use (i.e. "0:00 - 12:43").

Section III

In paragraph form, defend and discuss your decision for choosing each piece in Section II. Use musical terminology to discuss the pieces and be sure to apply information about the course topic you chose in Section I. Section III should be about 1000 words total.
