Teaching Performance Through Composition

The Teaching Performance through Composition series has been created to help you achieve composition in the ensemble space without sacrificing rehearsal time. A set of musical materials ranging from rhythms and melodies, to ostinato patterns and accompanying figures are provided in a range of keys and capabilities. Once your students can play their bits and pieces, you are then able to collectively compose with the musical elements of structure, timbre, texture and expression to create your very own, original performance worthy pieces of music. Every one a world premiere!
