Good work! I really enjoyed reading about your process and the journey you've made. Excellent stuff!

I went over my entire piece and fixed the places that needed fixes and quantize the chords that needed quantizing. I also organized the order of the instruments and cleaned my composition up again and checked to make sure everything was in place.

I started working on the ending of my composition and decided on how to make it mirror my introduction. I decided to go backwards to the way my piece starts so I ended my piece with the cello line just like the way I started. Before the last cello phrase, there was the grand piano and before that there was the African Kit.

I reorganized my whole composition so it looks neat and tidier and when looked at, people can kind of see the physical and musical structure I am going for. I also added layers to the middle as suggested and also added some new instruments in order to enhance the main melody.
In the picture below, you can kind of see that it is going from 1 instrument to more and more layer and it's adding on to expand more into the climax.

As suggested by Mr.Bradshaw, I will add some dynamics to the main bass line or have another cello line and build up on the main chords. I will also end the piece like I started the piece so it is kind of in a mountain shape. I also will add more layers to the middle so it is more complex and would actually be like I built it up then built it down.

I worked on the chorus and tried to make it distinct from the rest of the piece and while working on the chorus I was able to come up with some harmony parts for some other parts of the composition.

I added a main melody to my pre-chorus and then added some harmony to the main melody so that it can slowly build up to the climax of the composition. I added some movements to the chord progression.

I started to work on the chorus of my composition and I built it up from normal chords on different synthesizers first. I used the main chord progression and then added some dynamics to those.

I decided to cut out the main edm parts of my composition and make it more of a classical and minimalist type of piece. In order to do this, I had the cello play the main bass notes first. Then, I proceeded to add simple piano chords then more complex piano chords. Beneath all these, I also added a simple drum beat in order to keep it in rhythm and also make it less classical.

Instead of making a certain instrument only 4 bars, I decided to make them 8 bars so that it can build up slowly and also develop a bit of a minimalist style in the piece. In addition, I organised the instruments so it is easier to follow along while listening to the composition.

After talking with Mr.Bradshaw, I worked on the first few chords of my composition first. I made chords based off of my chord progression. I also decided to use the cello as my bass line.

I continued testing out the beats that were available to me and decide on a suitable transition from orchestral to upbeat.

In class, I was able to combine the EDM style chords I made and the more orchestral part of the piece. I tried to figure out what would be a suitable style of transition. I was also trying to pair up the chords with beats that would be appropriate with the rest of the piece.

# data[].attributes.body
I decided to use my original chord progression and decided to try making those chords. I also tried to add some drum beats to try making my own kicks.

I wanted to create techno style chords that would act as the edm part of my piece. In order to do this, I watched a youtube video by Alex Rome in order to pick up some tips on creating these chords.

I decided to repeat the four bars of violin 1 again but in a lower octave and also decided to change the bass line that went with it.

I tried out a lot of different sounds with the four chords I had and I also tried to figure out how to work in Logic without a midi keyboard and an actual piano.

# data[].attributes.body
I continued to solidify my chord progression and was able to come up with 4 chords that I would be able to use

I started on a new piece on Logic. My previous one was just a trial to see what variety of things are available for me. I worked on the beginning of my piece and decided that I will start off with a scale. Then, I decided to work on a chord progression with the piano so that I can have a solid idea of which chords will be suitable for me to work with.

Logic is a "digital audio workstation" that I will be using for my composition. Logic is more comfortable for me because I am more of a hands on person and I tend to work better with actually playing the instruments on a midi keyboard.

I intend to create music that is soft yet a little bit upbeat. I am going to have a mixture of orchestral instruments and edm. I was inspired by the restrung version of Faded by Alan Walker.
