Abstract

This manuscript is a collection of musical compositions written by Micah Hood while a graduate student at the University of New Mexico. Each musical work fulfills a composition portfolio requirement as stated in the 2012 — 2013 Music Theory/Composition Student Handbook: a piece with large orchestration, a piece featuring the voice, a piece featuring electronics, and a collaborative piece. Hood's composition portfolio contains original visual art, synopses and musical scores. The pieces featured in the portfolio are Hood's Concerto for Trombone, String Orchestra, Percussion, and Piano: Movement I - Introduction, Ostinato and Fugue, Kyrie for mixed choir and organ, Two Improvisations with Christian Pincock, Depravity — Estancia in collaboration with Ursula Coyote and Rodney Gurule, and Deep Calls to Deep for two pianos.
