Blog #1

So, I don't really know anything about composition... or blogging.  I've really enjoyed theory courses so far, and have been wanting to try my hand at composing my own music, so I guess this is my chance!  When Dr. Ross said the first assignment would be a non-tonal composition, it scared me a bit.  However, after looking at the description of the assignment, along with Dr. Ross' "How to compose atonal music" steps, I am quite excited about the assignment, and can't wait to hear what I come up with!  And hopefully I'll get better at blogging as the semester progresses too...
