Composing Together

Level II - July 5-10, 2009
Composing Together Level I *Postponed*

Composing Together* is a way to build a community of composers through the use of listening, performing, creating, and critiquing activities in school-based settings. Created in the United States by Michele Kaschub and Janice P. Smith, the program emphasizes the development of teacher-composers who are able facilitators of children's compositional work.

The Composing Together Program* is the only certificate of graduate study in teaching music composition Pre K-12 offered in the United States. Bringing professional educators and composers together, the unique nine-credit program sets the stage for engaging children in music composition in classrooms, private and group lessons, computer laboratories, and rehearsal halls. The certificate program requires the completion of
Composing Together Levels I, II, and III, which may stand alone or constitute a sub-concentration within the Master of Music degree program at USM.
3 credits each level.

*Application to this program is required.
