The Cambridge Assignments in Music series features a variety of books, audio cassettes and CDs including History of Music, Popular Music, Performing and Responding and Popular Music. The 12 projects in this latest addition to the Cambridge Assignments in Music series approach listening and musical appreciation in a new way, through pieces specially composed by John Howard for classroom performance. Within each project students follow five stages: learn, rehearse and perform a piece designed for classroom use; discuss features of that piece; explore structural features and composing devices which connect the piece with a 'master work', a piece by a well-known composer; use supporting information about the 'master work'; respond with work of their own in the form of composing, improvising, further listening and discussion.
