How to share music between iPads with different Apple Accounts?

I want to transfer music from my iPad Pro to my wife's iPad(8th gen). I have an Apple account but she doesn't. Any help would be appreciated.

How is she managing to use an iPad with no Apple account? Normally you would do this using Family Sharing if the music is sourced from Apple, or syncing the iPad to a computer that acts as a source for both devices.
