Sibelius Compass is a unique program to help students learn how to compose. It
includes lessons, worksheets and self-tests covering a wide range of topics, leading
on to complete composition projects.
Theory & practice
For each lesson, students study relevant interactive topics, test themselves
with the built-in quiz, and try out what they've learned in the Tracker. Topics
include melody, harmony, scales, rhythm, dynamics, transformations, timbre,
texture, and form.

and develop musical ideas. It includes 1200 motives (e.g. chord sequences, rhythms,
scales) to use plus tools to create canons, inversions, ostinati etc., and combine
material in new ways.
