Watch the launch of 'Creative Composition for the Classroom' by James MacMillan and Jennifer Martin

Trinity College London commissioned a new book for music teachers and young composers from James MacMillan, Artistic Director and Jennifer Martin, Chief Executive of The Cumnock Tryst to illustrate the compositional process and to support those teaching and learning composition in the upper years of secondary school. This book incorporates much of the teaching processes used in the Tryst’s composition projects for schools and was launched during The Cumnock Tryst Festival 2021. The two authors discussed the project with Stuart Pearce, Director, UK & Ireland Markets at Trinity College London and Gillian Moore, Director of Music and Performing Arts for Southbank Centre.

You can purchase a copy of the book via the Trinity College Press online shop.
