Early Winter Light: a portfolio of compositions inspired and influenced by place and travel - Dataset

2020-03, Steward, Neil, Hewitt, Donna, Smith, Paul

Early Winter Light is a practice led project that investigates the influence and inspirations on compositional practice of place; a container of physical, environmental, social and cultural meanings and its concomitant connector – travel. The resultant five musical pieces display how these ideas and inspirations are approached, aesthetically, stylistically and technically, and how they are consolidated within a compositional approach. Place and travel inspire my creative practice through relating to my identity, stimulating me to create music using computer-based software and field recordings. The resultant musical pieces display how these ideas and inspirations are approached, aesthetically, stylistically and technically, and how they are consolidated within a compositional approach. The associated exegesis explores the work describing the technical approaches used and outlining my thoughts and inspirations leading to the creation of the pieces.
