Alistair Wightman: Writing About Music Workbook

There is advice on how best to tackle research and the collection of information, and how to structure an essay. Examples are provided, drawing on many different types of music. Help is given on how to approach detailed set-work questions, extended essays and programme notes. Also included are some argument-provoking, open-ended questions that invite you to consider and structure responses to broader musical issues. Suitable for AS and A2 students of music, progressing on to those taking the IB diploma or Cambridge Pre-U exams, and designed to bridge the gap for those continuing on to university studies, this book supports the development of skills useful to many areas of academic life.
