    • نبذة مختصرة :
      The author focuses on composing and arranging in middle school general music. Middle school general music students are considered the perfect audience for teaching composition and arranging because they are creative, inquisitive, and mature enough to make some artistic decisions, familiar with many musical styles, and have the kinesthetic abilities to make subtle musical changes. All start from the students' current musical abilities and proceed with the gradual introduction of new skills and concepts. Composing exemplifies an integrated approach to learning about music. When students are creating their own compositions, they are combining the musical elements in a conscious manner.
