James MacMillan and Jennifer Martin draw on their wealth of expertise, offering
the reader a window into their techniques and demystifying the concept of musical
creativity. They provide the keys to unlock students’ imaginations, giving them the tools
and confidence to develop their ideas and share them with friends, teachers and family.
Critical thinking is encouraged through a range of individual and group activities, musical examples and analysis,
with concise hints and tips, compositional techniques and suggestions for listening included along the way. The
ideas presented can easily be adapted for a variety of learning situations with topics including pitch, rhythm,
timbre, pulse, harmony, decision-making, instrumentation and structure. Graphic representations of musical
structures teach young composers to visualise their work more holistically before embarking on their writing,
while a printable worksheet, available to download, acts as a checklist for making compositional choices.
This volume combines technical rigour with imagination and creativity, allowing all educators and learners
to expand the scope of their lessons, whether formally studying composition or simply wanting to add some
creative music making to their curriculum.

Introducing Theory

used musical symbols, providing a firm grounding in notation from which to progress
onto Trinity’s Theory of Music Workbook Grade 1.
There is ample opportunity to practise each element throughout this workbook, with
symbols often explored in more than one way to build deeper understanding and to
consolidate the learning.
‘Did you know?’, ‘Handy tip’ and ‘Remember’ boxes give advice along the way,
