The aim of this course is to refine ear training and knowledge of styles, as well as developing an inner ear and learning how to construct a musical discourse, with its spelling, grammar and syntax. Focusing on writing techniques in harmony and counterpoint, this approach can then lead to the introductory writing class B, which prepares students for entry to the advanced writing cycle.
