Is composition equal parts mystery and magic- a discipline whose inner workings are revealed only to a few- or is it a set of skills that can be understood, acquired, and practiced by all.

Selected works by master composers- as well as excerpts from music by Henson, Custer, and a number of student composers- provide concrete illustrations of the practical concepts described in the text. Each chapter includes thought- starters for reflection and a series of guided exercises based on practical models that allow students to begin acquiring the skills of the composer's craft for themselves.

How do you survive writer's block. What's the best way to get published- and how important is it anyway.
