unique to the medium. Based on years of working in the field, as

music with an emphasis on critical thinking and the creative

the next and guides the reader step by step through the essentials.
Along with all the theory, a multitude of clearly defined hands-on
projects and exercises are included, designed to prepare the reader
to go out into the field with a complete understanding of the art
and craft of music composition for games and visual media. Key
