About this Unit
In 2018 this unit replaces 102566 - Arranging Music. The arranging of music is both a phonocentric and a notational practice: producer/arrangers of popular music workshop and rehearse ideas in a performance context, and arrangers of popular and art music score instrumental and vocal parts in notated form. This unit seeks to develop students' skills in the notational area via regular workshops, rehearsals and demonstrations, and a program of intensive listening and transcribing of idiomatic style elements and instrumentation.
