The Handbook's forward-looking practices offer teachers tools and strategies for every child to experience music composition as part of their music education. Editor Michele Kaschub, along with an outstanding team of contributing authors, offers a comprehensive handbook providing key scholarly, critical, and practical perspectives on teaching composers and learning to compose. Written by academic scholars, researchers, and music teachers, the 43 chapters of the volume addresses nine major themes: philosophical foundations; identity and inclusion; compositional processes; approaches to composition teaching and learning; nurturing young composers; composing in classroom and ensemble settings; international perspectives on composition in music education; and how the future of composition might be shaped.The Handbook provides strategies to readers in embracing diversity as it is found in the individual nature of each student-composer and in the broader community of composers. Kaschub proposes an understanding of the value of individual and collaborative work as a function of artistic action, including a wide-range range of experiential contexts so that students can embrace traditional and emerging music, and ways to help students sustain and extend their cultural heritage through composing. The Oxford Handbook of Music Composition Pedagogy underscores the potential that composition holds for advancing student artistry in music education while guiding educators working to achieve that goal.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50233921634577,"sku":"NGR9780197574874","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999947100433,"sku":"NIN9780197574874","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0197574874.jpg?v=1776765996"},{"product_id":"experiencing-music-composition-in-grades-3-5-book-michele-kaschub-9780190497651","title":"Experiencing Music Composition in Grades 3-5","description":"Experiencing Music Composition in Grades 3-5 is a practical guide to new, innovative, and natural composition techniques for young composers. Music Educators Michele Kaschub and Janice Smith bring a wealth of experience to bear a unique and thoughtfully curated series of materials that help teachers connect music education to young composers' everyday emotions and activities . Divided into four sections, Kaschub and Smith's book illustrates a creative roadmap for instilling a sense of creative independence in students ages 8-11. The first section introduces readers to three distinct compositional ideals that are as educationally significant as the music they help create: feelingful intention, musical expressivity, and artistic craftsmanship. These capacities help springboard children's work from sounds and brief musical gestures to thoughtfully created, expressive musical pieces. Section 2 includes fun and imaginative lessons that are accompanied by Sketchpages-graphic worksheets that support deep consideration of a project's purpose during the compositional process. Lessons also include invaluable suggestions for productive sharing in a variety of formats. Section 3 offers guidance and strategies for sharing work, providing feedback, and encouraging future growth in a manner that fosters a positive learning experience and acknowledges each composer's musical autonomy. Section 4 contains additional teacher guides focused on creating original music in different genres. These guides outline multiple approaches to corresponding lessons and jumpstart activity while serving as developmental models. Experiencing Music Composition: Grades 3-5 offers new ways to promote not only creative intuition in children but also independent thought, preparing students for a fulfilling relationship with music.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50304683639057,"sku":"CIN0190497653A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999629545745,"sku":"NIN9780190497651","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52488730607889,"sku":"NLS9780190497651","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52652788678929,"sku":"CIN0190497653G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0190497653.jpg?v=1750876537"},{"product_id":"experiencing-music-composition-in-grades-3-5-book-michele-kaschub-9780190497644","title":"Experiencing Music Composition in Grades 3-5","description":"Experiencing Music Composition in Grades 3-5 is a practical guide to new, innovative, and natural composition techniques for young composers.
