Answering questions about the theme of our next project ["GEOGRAPHY & MUSIC of POETRY"] :

Questions:
  • I am not sure what exactly you mean.
  • Composition? ... you want composed video?
  • can I get a more elaborative description on the subject?
  • Just exactly what does a "Music of Poetry" mean?

No composition, no video.
It is about writing a poem about a place, a view, a geographical feature (such as a river, a mountain or a valley, ...), or a building/monument, village/city, or even a whole region, but associating it with the reference to a music (ancient or modern), a song, a traditional musical composition of that country (a vocal or instrumental composition)...

I mean, for instance: writing a poem about Edinburgh's castle (in Scotland), where the music of drums and bagpipes resounds [for an example, you can watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eSL6Nv2ZdQ -- or this one, taken at a Scottish highlands gather: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLxdcfnU5C0]

Understand? ☺
