Apakhabar, I certainly agree with your remarks about music theory and musical foundations, but these are not "how-to" materials for composing I guess we'll just have to disagree about this. There is a great deal of "how too" involved in the study of music that goes far beyond listening to music and creating your own. Songs and symphonies have structures that are studied, learned, and understood by most of the gifted people who create them. Certainly there is a difference between original ideas and all those aspects of the structure you mention, but knowledge of the structure can be and usually is acquired by study. Creativity without the knowledge of "how to" often falls short, as does the "how too" for people who never have an original idea. The same is true in most fields of endeavor, if not on an individual level then certainly in a collaborative one. There are a lot of good engineers who have never created a new product, and a lot of good ideas that have failed to be implemented by those lacking the knowledge of how to build something. It's when the "how to" meets up with creativity that good things start to happen. Dan
