Composition Blogs

Composition is a key component of any Music programme. At all levels of music making students are required and encouraged to be composers. GCSE Music & A-Level Music will contain compositional elements as well as most Key Stage 3 programmes of study. This page brings together my Composition Blogs so that you can easily find what you need.

This page brings together a range of blogs that focus on Composition. This includes a series which looks at Composing at Home. Please use this page to discover compositional ideas for your students. If you are a student, then use this page to help you compose whether at home or at school.
