Guidelines On Melody Writing W/Exercise

Composition can be taught and the skills developed by exercises, just like other less creative disciplines. The book which is graded for students at the 6, 7, 8 level guides the pupil through a series of simple and easy to follow steps followed by consolidation practice and exercises.

Students following the text also become familiar with the analysis of melody: its character, direction and implied harmonic structure. The author hopes that students working with the series, will not only find success in the exams but also discover their potential as composers.
