Abstract

The purposes of this thesis were to compose a piece for the Jazz orchestra through a combination of concepts and methods of modern jazz composers and the traditional Jazz composition techniques and to publicly publish the music composition.

The piece consisted of three parts, each emphasizing the interpretation of three essential words including portrait, nature, and dance. Each part was linked by the transition along with the improvisation according to the patterns and the methods for Jazz composition in order to present the smooth continuity of the story.

The length of this piece is ten minutes. Additionally, this music composition is released to an online media channel for jazz educational purposes.
