Welcome to the GCSE Music Composition Handbook. In this

booklet you will find useful information which will help you plan
and develop your work.
You will find:

Lots of useful advice on composing techniques

Planning sheets to help you plan your work effectively
Musical conventions used by the composers of your set works
2
 Short projects to get you started. These are based on the four
different Areas of Study
Advice as to what the examiners are looking for in your work.

Getting Started
Virtually every piece of music we listen to has the same core
features:
A planned structure
A steady pulse which might change at some point in the piece
A tune of some description
An accompaniment

To create these core features, it is wise to have a plan. There are

composition plan templates at the back of this handbook. You
must use these to plan each of the 12 composition tasks, as well
as for your final two compositions that will be submitted to
Edexcel.

Structures in Composition
If a piece of music is to make sense and feel logical it must have a
structure. This is what holds it together. In order to give your
music structure it is necessary to decide on a compositional form
that is appropriate to your compositional idea.
There are FIVE main types of compositional form you can use to
create your five pieces:

3
ABA Ternary Form
This is a satisfying music form because it finishes in the same way as it starts i.e.
Section A is repeated at the end. It rounds off the piece.

Either Section A is repeated exactly after contrasting Section B has happened or it can
be slightly developed and varied from its original but still contrasts with Section B.

AoS1 Bach, Beethoven is sonata form, which is developed from ternary form.

ABACADAEetc Rondo Form

This musical form has the use of repetition. The A section is the most regularly
repeated; it can either be a straight repeat or a variation every time A happens. The
variations must ensure the audience can still recognise them as Section A. Sections
BCDE etc must contrast with Section A.

A, A, A, A, Aetc Ground Bass Form

This is a form that is more traditionally used within music from the Baroque era (1600-
1750). It will usually consist of an 8-bar bass line that is heard continually throughout
the piece of music. This would traditionally be performed on a cello/lute, however, in a
more modern setting the composer could choose to perform it on any low-pitched
instrument.

A0S 2 - Purcell

Intro, A, B, A, B, instrumental, B, Coda Verse/Chorus

Form
This is a very common form to use when structuring modern, commercial sounding
music. The A section acts as a verse and can be varied each time it appears, with the
B section representing a type of chorus this will usually be an exact repeat each
time. The instrumental in the middle will often use motifs/ideas directly from the
chorus, but make it sound more virtuosic (showing off!)

AoS 2 Queen
AoS 3 Wicked
AoS 4 Afro Celt Sound System, Esperanza Spalding

Writing a Melody
The character of a melody is shaped by its rhythm, pitches, overall
form and pace.
Good melodies are:
Singable!
Mainly made up of stepwise movement, with occasional leaps.
The total range is no more than 1 octaves (e.g.: middle C up to the G).
Use repetition
of the way through, the music comes to a high point and then subsides.
Usually constructed of balanced melodic phrases, made up of pairs of fours. Four
bar phrases are usually in an arch-shape, where the highest point is reached in the
third phrase. They can be based on a short motif which is either extended or
contrasted.

Musical Conventions
In this section, all the composing techniques, tips and tricks that all our
different set works writers have used are explained so you can experiment
with them in your own pieces.

Composition 1 to a set brief by Edexcel, linked to one Area of Study.

Composition 2 free composition.

The minimum combined length of both your pieces is 3 minutes.
