Meet the Great Composers Book 1 published by Alfred Publishing Company, Inc..
Short Sessions on the Lives, Times and Music of the Great Composers
The authors have combined forces to explore the stories of 17 composers who have enriched our lives with their beautiful music. These 17 units have been designed to give students an appreciation and understanding of the composers whose music they play. Each unit features important facts about the composer, the story of the composer's life, an interesting essay about the composer's music or about the time in which the composer lived, a fun activity sheet that reinforces what the student has learned, and a suggested listening (a recording containing all of the suggested listening examples is available on CD or cassette).
