Music Outside the Lines is an informative and practical resource
for all who are invested in making music composition an integral
part of curriculum. Author Maud Hickey addresses the practical
needs of music educators by offering both a well-grounded
justification for teaching music composition and also a compendium
of useful instructional ideas and classroom activities. Hickey
begins with a rationale for teachers to begin composition
activities in their own classrooms, with a thoughtful argument that
demonstrates that all music teachers possess the skills and
training needed to take children along the path toward composing
satisfying musical compositions even if they themselves have never
taken formal composition lessons. She also addresses some of the
stickier issues that plague teaching music composition in schools
such as assessment, notation, and technology. Most importantly, she
introduces a curricular model for teaching composition, a model
which provides an array of composition activities to try in the
music classrooms and studios. These activities encourage musical
and creative growth through music composition; while they are
organized in logical units corresponding to existing teaching
modules, they also offer jumping off points for music teachers to
exercise their own creative thinking and create music composition
activities that are customized to their classes and needs. As a
whole, Music Outside the Lines both successfully reasons that music
composition should be at the core of school music curriculum and
also provides inservice and pre-service educators with an essential
resource and compendium of practical tips and plans for fulfilling
this goal.
