In my composition, I have used dynamics to create a sense of tension and release. For example, around when part A starts, I made the volume crescendo into forte, and when the part finishes the main melody the parts decrescendo back down into piano. In part A and B, I utilized the same ostinato pattern, but by exploring different dynamics, I aim to mold the eerie and unsettling mood of the piece further. By manipulating dynamics in this way, I was able to convey the emotional journey of the music and enhance the overall mood of the piece.
