Omen, Tao-Hsing Wang

Masters Theses

The arrangement of this composition is based on chamber orchestra. The piece which is very classical structure was written not only by the harmonic theory of chromaticism and mode mixture but also by a sort of contrapuntal skill for its essential musical languages by me. In addition, the music form of the whole piece can be described as three movements with one introduction, though it should be played without any interruption or break between each movement.

As the title "Omen," we can find that there is a crucial harmonic motive, augmented triad, hidden in the introduction of this piece, and …

The Drawing Of The Three, John Griffin

Masters Theses

The Drawing of the Three is a work in seven movements scored for full orchestra. The title, along with the movement names, are derived from the novel The Dark Tower II: The Drawing of the Three by Stephen King. This composition can be viewed as a "sequel" to my earlier piece The Gunslinger, inspired by the first book in King's "Dark Tower" series. Unlike the previous work, the music is not intended to be a literal programmatic representation of the book's plot. Rather, its purpose is to musically depict the personalities and inner conflicts of the characters in the …

Computer-Assisted Music Composition In The 32-Bar Jazz Standard Form, Chad Hogg

Computer Science Honors Papers

The goal of this research project was to explore the potential for teaching a computer to compose jazz music. Specifically, the hope was to develop a method in which every decision could be made based on information about the entire system. If this problem were solved, the ancillary goal of allowing the user to set any arbitrary constraints that have global effects would be a trivial addition.

Têmpulo, Bruno Ruviaro

Music

Têmpulo: time, temple, but also leap. Têmpulo was composed in reaction to Mark Applebaum’s piece “Theme in Search of Variations”. While trying to find a name for the piece, I came across with this: “Temple [from Latin templum, tempulum, ‘a small division’; from Greek, Latin term to cut off, mark out]: Templum was a spot marked off for sacred purposes by the augur with his staff, and might be on the ground or in the sky, where it was a region designated for the observation of omens. […] There is a suggestive connection with temple and tempus (Latin “time,” from …

Instantânea, Bruno Ruviaro

Music

Instantânea was commissioned in 2005 by Brazilian pianist and composer Tania Lanfer. The piece is in fact consists of two short pieces, two “instantaneous” movements. The first concentrates on sounds less commonly associated with the piano. The second brings back the traditional timbre of the instrument and subtly modulates it electronically.
