Course description

This course is intended as an in-depth exploration of musical composition in an optimal small group setting
which allows for group instruction, peer collaboration, and individual instruction and feedback. 

Having previously taken some level of instruction in music composition, students aged 12-17 will create original, notated musical
works for their own instrument as well as those of others in their class with the potential for live performances,
readings, or recordings at the end of each term. 

In addition to working on assignments and creative projects, participants will research and study works by composers from the past 300 years of the Western classical
tradition, seminal works representative of a diversity of styles in the 20th & 21st centuries, and a sample of works
by living composers. 

The course will be a combination of both assigned and self-directed projects, feature classes with guest clinicians, and give participants free access to a selection of local new music events.
