This supplementary material contains
a section on step by step directions for creating a 12-Tone Row. The
packet also has directions for developing the forty-eight (48) possible rows used in writing 12-Tone
compositions. It gives examples so
that students and teachers can see how the rows are created and contains
reproducible materials for students which have the steps for selecting
their own
rows and beginning to write their own compositions.
The following excerpt is from a
piece composed by Lee McKay's student, Nicholas Venter, using our materials. This composition was a First Place Winner in the TMTA Original
Composition Contest, Division S6-7, for 2006. It was also the
TMTA/MTNA State winner and the South Central Division Winner, 2007, placing it
in the MTNA National Finals.
