🎵Melodic Phrasing
mediumMotivic Development Exercise
Start with a simple 3-note motif using F#-A-B. Play it in position 1, then develop it: transpose up an octave, invert the intervals, change the rhythm, or extend with passing tones. Create 4 variations while maintaining the melodic identity.
Tip: Great songs develop simple ideas rather than abandoning them. Milk your motifs like a composer.
