What are documenting your decisions?
Show answer
Arranging tasks often ask you to explain your choices: why you assigned the melody to a particular instrument, why you re-harmonised a section, what effect you intended. Be able to justify each decision in terms of tone colour, texture, idiomatic writing and the character you wanted, just as you would defend an original compositional choice.
