About
"Exquisite Corpse" is a piece that I wrote as part of a composition project at Eastern Washington University. This project involved multiple composers. Our task was to write a piece inspired by our previous classmate's composition and then pass our composition onto the next student to write from. This was a very exciting project and I enjoyed hearing how the pieces evolved and what inspiration was taken and not taken from previous compositions.
I wrote this piece entirely in my notation software and tried to build the piece from my previous classmate's contribution. I took inspiration for the piano line in my piece from what was written by the composer before me. I wrote the Saxophone and Cello lines to match the mood and energy of the piano and enhance the "Exquisite Corpse" further.
