The AMEB is proud to announce the arrival of Music Craft, the exciting new approach to music theory. Music Craft makes music theory real through a comprehensive syllabus and publications package that is responsive to busy instrumental teachers who know that theory is foundational to the developing musician. Music Craft represents the most significant revitalisation of theoretical pedagogy the AMEB has undertaken in almost 40 years. Music Craft draws on the expertise of scholars, teachers and students from around Australia, bringing the teaching of theory into line with international best practice and preparing students for a lifetime of engagement with music.

Combining aural training and written exercises in forty lessons, Music Craft publications are suitable to be used through the school year in classrooms as well as private studios. Each Student Workbook features extensive drilling and revision and is accompanied by two aural training CDs, underlining the importance of developing aural acuity as a counterpart to our understanding of theoretical concepts.

Each grade level is supplemented by a Teacher’s Guide that explains all the concepts encountered in the Student Workbook in easy-to-understand language. Each Teacher’s Guide contains a Thematic Outline and Question Maps for easy referencing of theoretical concepts, as well as all the answers to the questions in the Student Workbook.

All teachers know that theory is the key to understanding the music students love and enjoy. AMEB’s new syllabus and publications make learning theory a breeze.

Music Craft is the theory behind musical success.
