1 Reid School of Music MMus Orchestration Course Organiser: Professor Peter Nelson Course Lecturer & Tutor: Dr Derek Williams Session Course blog is at: Classes THURSDAYS at pm in Lecture Room B : weekly in weeks Tutorials Sept 26; Oct 3, 17, 31; Nov 21. Work will be set each week by the course tutor. Assessments There will be ONE assessment (Total value 100%): a portfolio of two contrasting pieces, one for full symphony orchestra (60%), the second for a jazz orchestra (40%). The second piece will aim to reflect your particular compositional interest, however you may make an approved personal selection of equivalent standard. Both may be considered suitable for synchronisation with film. This must be submitted to the Postgraduate Office by on Wednesday 3rd December 2014 [TWO copies]. Requirements You may submit either a handwritten or computer generated score. For handwritten submission, you will need stave ms. paper that may be purchased from the Music Office. Please use white paper, not cream. You should write using a B pencil, available from most stationers. If you use Sibelius, Finale or other notation software, the score must be still submitted in hard copy printed form. You may also send a copy in PDF format by to Derek.Williams@ed.ac.uk, together with an audio recording of either the scorewriter output or a live performance if desired.
