Renowned author Dr. Geoff Lowe meets the rock explosion head on, covering the key rock music styles from the 1950’s to the present day. The addition of the new workbook offers a range of practical tasks that allow students to unpack song lyrics in their historical concepts, and to analyse each musical element of the song. The tasks are designed to help students understand how rock songs are created, ultimately guiding them to the composition of their own songs while building their performing skills.
