1 minutes Teacher Notes: Amy Wert M.M., B.Ed. (Sec Music), A Mus A Program Synopsis Composing can be an amazing and fun experience whether you are a budding Mozart, techno freak, an emerging guitarist or a complete novice with just a computer at hand. Young people today can express themselves through solo compositions for their own instrument, by collaborating with others in ensembles, choirs or bands, and even through using their phones, computer or the recording studio as their instrument. This program explores a number of starting points for composition, covering a variety of styles and genres, which are used by some of Australia s emerging composers and songwriters.

2 Related Program Inside a Recording Studio Introduction Composers through the ages have strived to entertain, educate, inspire or even challenge their audiences. Today, students have the opportunity to create music for classroom and instrumental music programs. For many students, music is a way to express the inexpressible in their lives. Musicians with a range of experience and ability use notation systems and/or technology to record their compositions, and this program aims to encourage students to create and collaborate. Program Rationale The aim of the program is to motivate young people to get excited about creating their own compositions. The program describes and defines many musical elements and embraces a number of musical genres from orchestral, small ensemble, rock bands, urban R&B, and techno compositions. This program provides many starting points for students to become inspired to write and record their own music.
