36 Noteworthy Musicians

Expand the scope of your music history studies! Edited for cultural sensitivity by professional equity consultants, this collection of lessons celebrates the often-overlooked stories of composers and musicians from underrepresented communities. A culmination of the Nine Noteworthy series, this book includes all lessons from each of the Nine Noteworthy books on Black composers, female composers, Latin American musicians, and Asian American/Pacific Islander musicians. Each musician is introduced with a quick-read Bio, brief Connections facts, and a Listening Lab identifying important works and key elements to discover in each musical selection. Students may check what they learned on the Review page, and then connect with the musician's life and times through Reflection Questions, and a culminating Writing Prompt. Includes access to a digital version, PDF worksheets for each musician of study, and answer keys. PDFs may be printed, duplicated, and projected, limited to one school or organization.
