Out now: Classroom Music spring term 1 2009/10


The spring term 1 issue of Classroom Music is out now, complete with the new online lesson materials for KS3, 4 and 5, including BTECs.

In the magazine itself, you can read about composition summer schools, Youth Music Theatre UK and leading audio production FE courses. There's advice on the whys and wherefores of teaching notation in the classroom, the basics of multi-track recording and how to set up a local music network. You can also find out how the new Rhinegold listening tests work and read a review of Music Technology from Scratch.

We also share the reflections of teachers running the Creative and Media Diploma, and would be very interested in hearing your own experiences/opinions of this course. Do you teach the Diploma? If so, what do you make of it so far? Do you agree with the opinions expressed in the article?

As ever, we'd also value your feedback on the articles and lesson materials we've provided in this issue - please post a comment below.
