About the Book

The 12 projects in this latest addition to the Cambridge Assignments in Music series approach listening and musical appreciation in a new way, through pieces specially composed by John Howard for classroom performance. Within each project students follow five stages: learn, rehearse and perform a piece designed for classroom use; discuss features of that piece; explore structural features and composing devices which connect the piece with a 'master work', a piece by a well-known composer; use supporting information about the 'master work'; respond with work of their own in the form of composing, improvising, further listening and discussion. Working with John Howard's pieces encourages students to respond with musical intelligence when they listen to the 'master work' and lessens their resistance to what is commonly known as classical music.
