(IB-) Music / Composition & Orchestration (Arrangement)

A Course - (Almost) Starting From Scratch 

by Rolf Becker

5.) Developing Your Melody

Once you’ve created YOUR initial melody, it’s time to expand and refine it.  â€‹

​

  • Research and Inspiration:  

 

Explore works by your favorite musicians or vocal artists that resonate 

with your musical idea. 

 

Analyze how they develop melodies within your chosen genre, 

and use these insights to refine your composition.  

 

By following these steps, you’ll not only create a melody but also begin to develop it into a fully realized piece of music. 

Remember, the key to successful composition lies in staying open to inspiration 

and allowing your creativity to flow naturally.
