In this helpful classroom resource, students will find a variety of approaches to composition (what to do and how to do it) and teachers will find a selection of topics, each largely self-contained and self-explanatory with a predictable outcome. Opus 1 is suitable for classes of 9-11 year olds, and non-specialist music teachers will find material easy to follow and fun to explore. Opus 2 is suitable for 12-13 year olds and will provide a useful background to music.
