ORIGINAL: devilhand Curious to know in which form you compose. Does your composition have a form which goes like Intro - Exposition - Development - Recapitulation - Coda or Intro? Or it's structured in a more simple way? I don’t constrain myself to forms, especially not in a premeditated way as I find that really puts a damper on their creative potential, but often in the middle of composing or sometimes even in retrospect I can map out the structure in a fairly specific way. In this piece, for example, there’s the intro going into the main theme, then a variation on the theme in a tarantella-like style (toward the end of which is a reference to some material from the introduction), the slower interlude followed by the pensive waltz section, and a brief, dramatic call-back to the main theme. Sometimes I also notice miniature motifs that develop as I compose, for example in my composition “Fantasia for Two Guitars,” there is a ~7 note melodic motif that recurs in various keys and contexts. Something like that is also not necessarily my intention before I start composing, usually, but ends up developing naturally.
