Anregen – Vertiefen – Ausbilden. Komponieren im didaktischen Kontext

Composition pedagogy is a collective term for diverse approaches with sometimes divergent goals and target groups. It includes concepts that use composing as a method in the context of aesthetic experience processes or in the context of teaching contemporary music, concepts that see composing as a possibility for one's own creative work in the context of instrumental lessons or that use composing as a method for conveying theoretical and analytical skills, concepts that aim to teach the craft of composing, and finally concepts that describe the process of composing as a rule-based process.
