Composition

When it comes to the elements of music, there are various opinions, such as three, six, and nine elements, but here we introduce the three elements that are more important for music creation.

1. Melody

"Melody" generally refers to the development of music horizontally. When musical notes are arranged in a series according to the progression of time, they are called a melody. "Melody" is often the element of music that listeners are most familiar with and remember. When we hum a song or the tune of a piece of music, what we think of in our hearts is usually the melody.

2. Rhythm

"Rhythm" refers to the changes in the length and strength of musical notes in time, closely related to concepts such as beat and tempo. The rhythm of music is often compared to the skeleton of music.

Beat is the unit for measuring rhythm in music. The strong and weak beats repeat periodically and regularly. Different rhythms give us different feelings. The rhythm of a four-beat piece is relatively stable, making the listener want to dance, while a three-beat rhythm is more elegant or gentle. Different rhythm structures create different feelings of strong and weak beats, thus determining the style characteristics of the piece.

3. Harmony

"Harmony" refers to the combination of three or more notes vertically in terms of pitch, first forming a chord structure, and then progressing horizontally to form a harmonic sequence. In a piece of music, harmony has functional and coloristic significance and plays a significant role in the construction of phrases, musical sections, and the modification of musical color. The harmonic progression in popular music now often has some common connections, which is why some songs can be sung to the accompaniment of other songs.

The Relationship Between Composition and Arrangement?

Composition: In the context of contemporary popular music, composition most often refers to melody writing (songwriting). The writing of vocal melodies can be completed by humming or playing an instrument, but it needs to take into account the singer's vocal range and singing ability, so the length of each line and the design of the highest and lowest notes cannot exceed this range. The traditional definition of composition is more extensive, referring to the act of creating music, which must include elements such as texture, form, arrangement, tempo, and rhythm. Complete composition needs to be playable.

Arrangement: Understanding the term "arrangement" in the context of our country's professional music field, it refers to the arrangement of a piece of music combined with music production. In simpler terms, it is the creation of accompaniment for the main melody. The composer builds the skeleton of the melody, while the arranger gives it flesh and blood. Arrangers need to be proficient in music theory such as harmony, polyphony, form, and instrumentation, and use them flexibly.

Lyrics Writing

Songs are the perfect combination of lyrics and melody. In popular music, "lyrics" can be understood as the words that are sung in coordination with the melody. Without a melody, sentences in paragraphs can be written based on the thoughts and feelings of the lyricist and can be called free lyrics. With a melody, lyricists fill in fixed-numbered sentences according to the rhythm and emotional expression of the melody, known as lyric writing. There are several key points to lyric writing.

[Oralization]

Lyrics are the "verses" that are sung, so the singability and oralization of the sentences are very important in practical applications. The reason why popular music is popular lies in its simplicity and its ability to resonate with listeners. Oralized lyrics are easy to spread and more in line with singing expression, while lyrics that are hard to understand will greatly increase the difficulty of dissemination.
