Composing the Curriculum: Teacher Identity
Lewis, Rebecca
British Journal of Music Education, v29 n2 p153-161 Jul 2012
What is composing and how is it valued? What does a good education in composing look like; what constraints hinder it and is it possible to overcome such constraints? Can composing be a personal, creative and valuable activity for the school student? What role does the teacher play in all of this? These are questions that I discuss in this reflective study of composing in the classroom.
