Famous Composers
Classical Conversations Foundations, Challenge 2
Summaries of Musical Periods of History & Their Composers
Like CC Foundations provides history sentences for events, this course provides summary sentences that capture the main features of periods in music history and the best-known accomplishments of famous composers. This resource includes audio and video recordings of the summary sentences, images of the composers, and links to recordings of their famous compositions.
Periods in music history include Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Modern. Famous composers include Handel, Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, Dvorak, Tchaikovsky, Debussy, and Stravinsky.
This inexpensive resource works for any student but nicely enhances the 3rd quarter of Foundations and the Debate strand of Challenge 2 in the Classical Conversations curriculum.
