Opera writing

Using predictive text to construct music


Rules
Free choice of three words
Basic melody note structure given by the words

For example
Foot and ankle boots for women characters
Notes -F A D A E B F E C A A C E

Originally I composed an accompaniment with just these notes, but it would not have been possible to sing it and there were words without ascribed notes as these only progress to a G. For this reason I edited the melody further, adding in notes in between those given by the lyrics so that the piece could be sung and sounded more traditionally musically correct.
