Intended to (1) acquaint teachers with the potential of computers, (2) show them what changes writers may have to make in their composing habits, and (3) inform teachers of the changes they may have to make in course syllabi to prepare students for the demands of the electronic world, this book examines the impact of technology on composition instruction. The first chapter discusses the capabilities and rapidly growing use in the business and professional world of such electronic technology as telecommunication systems and audio and electronic mail systems. The second chapter distills information about dictation and word processing systems from an extensive review of research literature and from interviews with computer users and trainers at various business sites across the country. Based on this, the third chapter outlines the curricula required to enable students to be effective composers at the computer. The fourth chapter contains forecasts of the kinds of research still needed for teachers to develop fruitful programs and strategies in the composition classroom. Appendixes include materials from the interviews, and information on audio mail systems and dictation processes. (HTH)

Electronic music evokes new sensations, feelings, and thoughts in both composers and listeners. Opening the door to an unlimited universe of sound, it engages spatialization as an integral aspect of composition and focuses on sound transformation as a core structural strategy. In this new domain, pitch occurs as a flowing and ephemeral substance that can be bent, modulated, or dissolved into noise. Similarly, time occurs not merely as a fixed duration subdivided by ratios, but as a plastic medium that can be generated, modulated, reversed, warped, scrambled, and granulated. Envelope and waveform undulations on all time scales interweave to generate form. The power of algorithmic methods amplify the capabilities of music technology. Taken together, these constitute game-changing possibilities. This convergence of technical and aesthetic trends prompts the need for a new text focused on the opportunities of a sound oriented, multiscale approach to composition of electronic music. Sound oriented means a practice that takes place in the presence of sound. Multiscale means an approach that takes into account the perceptual and physical reality of multiple, interacting time scales-each of which can be composed. After more than a century of research and development, now is an appropriate moment to step back and reevaluate all that has changed under the ground of artistic practice. Composing Electronic Music outlines a new theory of composition based on the toolkit of electronic music techniques. The theory consists of a framework of concepts and a vocabulary of terms describing musical materials, their transformation, and their organization. Central to this discourse is the notion of narrative structure in composition-how sounds are born, interact, transform, and die. It presents a guidebook: a tour of facts, history, commentary, opinions, and pointers to interesting ideas and new possibilities to consider and explore.

This textbook has been greatly expanded and revised with the needs of both students and instructors in mind. The reader-friendly style, logical organization, and pedagogical features provide easy access to key ideas, milestones, and concepts. Now a four-part text with fourteen chapters, the new fourth edition features new content: Audio CD of classic works of electronic music—a first for this book. Listening Guides providing annotated, moment-by-moment exploration of classic works—a new chapter feature that improves critical listening skills. Expanded global representation with new discussions of classic electronic music in the United Kingdom, Italy, Latin America, and Asia New discussion of early experiments with jazz and electronic music More on the roots of electronic rock music. Additional accounts of the under-reported contributions of women composers in the field, including new discussions of Daphne Oram, Delia Derbyshire, Lily Greenham, Teresa Rampazzi, and Jacqueline Nova Two appendices that trace the evolution of analog and digital synthesis technology. The companion website, launching June 2012, includes a number of student and instructor resources, such as additional Listening Guides, links to audio and video resources on the internet, PowerPoint slides, and interactive quizzes.
