A Young Scholar's Guide to Composers:
A Full Year's Curriculum in 32 Weekly Lessons
Table of Contents, Johann Sebastian Bach, Stephen Foster
Understanding Classical Music Is Important
If you want to push a hot button, talk to Christians about music. We tend to be all over the map regarding what is appropriate, and wow are we passionate! But even the extremists acknowledge the importance of classical music, both historically and in modern times, as it is used for everything from stopping troublemakers from congregating outside supermarkets, to reducing stress and anxiety for heart patients recovering in the hospital.
Studying Biographies Is Finally Easy!
However, to fully understand classical music, your children should study each composer's biography, and there is no easier way than with A Young Scholar's Guide to Composers. This trouble-free, thirty-two–week course provides a reflective look at twenty-six famous composers, their music, and the period God placed them in. Of significant importance to those of us who want to know, the authors have also delved into each composer's character traits and Christian testimony (or lack thereof).
Lots of Resources Included in This 32-Week Course
Included in A Young Scholar's Guide to Composers are easy-to-use maps, a comparative timeline, quizzes, answer keys, listening suggestions, intricate coloring pages, and much more. It is obvious that the authors have done the work, which means you don't have to. This is ideal for grades 4–8, but is so easily adaptable for younger and older students that it makes a perfect study for the entire family. |
