Composition Task 2
Cross Rhythms, Moto Perpetuo, Repetition
Expand your composition from Task 1 to be 1 minute, incorporating Cross Rhythms, Moto Perpetuo, and repetition.
Step 1
In your rhythmic cell Sibelius project, create cross-rhythms between two layers/instruments.
Create rhythmic cells of different lengths (eg. 2 bars, 4 bars, 8 bars, 3 beats), or use the ones you have already created in Task 1, and repeat them.
Step 2
Add a 'moto perpetuo' layer, featuring continuous semiquaver or quaver movement, using the same pitch set as you used in Task 1.
Record your composition and upload to EverNote.
