Abstract

This thesis accompanies the six submitted works, focusing on the utilisation of nature as a compositional factor, and its appreciation in the context of electroacoustic music. Apart from providing a separate discussion of each work. the thesis introduces a theoretical framework, where nature is defined in different types and sources, and where the idea of `naturalness' within a musical context is approached through an examination of certain sound-behaviours. Reference is
made to compositional methods used in the six works.
