Abstract [en]

This bachelor thesis aims to investigate whether methods of composition can facilitate the creative process and, despite frameworks, produce personal and unique results. It also aims to investigate how to develop a confident and unrestricted artistry. The essays process includes the use of 6 different methods for composition and artistic preparations for the project’s examining concert. These preparations included: body awareness, vocal technique, planning and rehearsals. The result was 4 songs written based on different methods. These songs are presented through a demo recording instead of a concert due to circumstances. The study showed that most of the methods facilitated the creative process without inhibiting a unique and personalized product. The process also led to the realization that the quest for creativity to be painless beneficially should be replaced by awareness that creativity requires courage. Through the process as well as its need for reflection and analysis, insights came about how to develop a confident and unrestricted artistry. Continuity in the practice of musical craftmanship, mental awareness and to work with body awareness to help enhance musical expression are mentioned as three main insights.
