Abstract

This thesis is a portfolio of seven composition composed from 2018 to 2020. The following commentary includes the discussion of technical and aesthetical approaches employed in these compositions. The central idea is to explore and deconstruct my Egyptian cultural background, influence of Egyptian folk instruments and elements of nature in order to transform them into new ideas. A particular focus is given to texture, extended techniques and form.
