"We must so organize the musical education of children that a time comes when they will be ready to 'express themselves' in music in the same way in which they can express themselves in their native tongue." (loc 463)

Since this week's reading focused on teaching composition, I've rounded up some resources for your studio.

Baby Steps to Teaching Music Composition

Music Composition with Found Objects

A Selection of Composition Lesson Plans

New Music Alive - Composition Resources

Noteflight - Free Online Music Notation Software


note: I'm reading this book from through my Kindle app, so quotations are shown by the location in the Kindle document.
