13/9/16
- Today i decided to pick guitar and piano and drums for my composition and i am going for the style of indie music. I chose this style because i feel comfortable with the instruments used in indie and i listen to a lot of indie artists such as The Stone Roses, Arctic Monkeys, Nirvana, The Killers and Kings of Leon.
I have decided to go for a structure of A B A C A.
20/9/16- Today I've been working on and accomplished my chord progression on piano to become fluent at it and written the notes on Sibelius 7. I have also started to learn my guitar chord progression but i'm finding moving my fingers to the right chords really difficult, to improve i'm going to start moving to my chords on guitar really slowly and progress faster.
27/9/16- Today i worked on and was able to accomplish my chord progression for my piano and structure. i found playing with both hands most difficult and for next week i'am going to improve by recording the chord progression and playing the other notes with one hand
11/10/16 - today i have been working on my second instrument guitar chord progression to come in with my piano and i have been able to complete it, the F chord is what i found most difficult so i have been doing all the other chords in time with the piano and then later on add in the F chord.
18/10/16 - I have been successfully able to record my guitar chords to merge with my piano chords for my opening to my composition. i used the chords C, F, G, F. on the guitar. what i found most difficult was figuring out what could come next in my composition.
01/11/16 - in today's lesson i have decided to use c scale to help come up with my tune to my composition, i am finding making a unique tune out of c scale quite difficult to improve on this I'm practising at home i have also accomplished my harmonic progression and next I'm going to start on my melody.
08/11/16 - today i worked on a tune from the c scale and i am practising to perfect it. I Am finding being flexible with guitar quite difficult as I'm new to guitar and at home i will practise more and more to become more comfortable with guitar.
15/11/16 - i have now recorded my c scale tune and added it on loop to my composition, next week i am going to re-record my piano and guitar onto a new ipad and i am going to develop my strumming pattern for guitar.
22/11/16 - this week i have re-recorded my piano and practised my strumming pattern for guitar, i have found the strumming pattern and going from C to F to G difficult, to overcome this i am going to practise more at home.
29/11/16 - since last week i have decided to use the garage band acoustic guitar for my CFGF chord strumming pattern. i found re-recording everything in time most difficult.

You need to write a short update every couple of weeks about how your piece is going to be relevant to the style you have chosen. e.g. if you have chosen an indie style, what features of music does indie have that you have successfully added into your composition.
