Description: Take melody – add harmony – rhythm – counterpoint and you have a musical composition, one element at a time. Members of the New York Woodwind Quintet return to explain and illustrate the component parts of music. Two young students of flute and clarinet play a duet by Tellemann to illustrate counterpoint. In closing, a familiar melody is selected and the children themselves choose the components for their own composition.
