Classics Come Alive!

This is a collection of 20 stories from the history of classical music, ranging from the Middle Ages to Modern Day. Each story is fun, educational, and highly interactive, inviting students to be attentive listeners and active participants. Each is 3-5 minutes long, perfect as a short introduction to a composer, an end-of-class activity when you have a few extra minutes, or a connector activity between an element of music you are exploring and a famous composer. Best of all, there are no materials needed and no prep. Just you and your students!
