Initial intentions (this must include intended choice of resources):
For my B352 composition I am planning on doing an arrangement of 'Chop Suey' by System of a
Down in a musical theatre style. Furthermore, it will be in the style of a battle duet of two contrasting
characters. To do this I will slow down the tempo and use a more mellow timbre an. Through my voice
I will convey emotion with a range of dynamics - from soft to a belt. As well as this, I will also change
the bridge to make it more melodic, by developing the pre-existing melody. This will reflect the genre
further and give me a wider opportunity to tell the story. To make my arrangement more unique I want
to syncopate both the verse and the chorus together.

Progress
Today, I finalised my key to a
major to make a more bouncy
feel that makes the audience full
of energy. I began by working
out the simple chords to the
verse and the chorus. Starting at
the beginning I kept these at the
same length and simple in the
hope to later on make my ideas
more complex and to thicken the
texture.
Today I added the base line to
the chorus which gave the more
melodic feel and link to the
original song.
