I should have added: Your instrument teacher will set you going with the
basic theory and notation skills you will need for writing down your own
tunes, but unless they also compose well, you will want to think about
finding a specialist composition tutor at some point.

Sounds like you have the idea. After listening to you on the video, I
see that I had it right for your needs. You seem to have a natural
appreciation for music and the way it fits into life. Theory is great,
learning is great and studying composition all have their place, but
when you get right down to it, if the music does not come from your
inner being, it is only exercises that reflect someone else's
experiences.

Fiona, I find these statistics interesting. Do you have a source?

Sounds like copyright, or trademark infringement to me Julio.
