Composition is another word for writing — the act of writing or the piece of writing that results. It also refers to what something is made of. The word composition comes from the Latin componere, meaning “put together” and its meaning remains close to this.

In Music, composition refers to writing down music so that it can be played by other people. Composers write down their intentions (dynamics etc) on how the pitches are to be played.
