Welcome to the wonderful world of music history! In this class we will explore composers from the baroque, classical, romantic, and contemporary music periods. This class will dive into the history of his/her life, inspirations, and music. No previous musical experience is necessary - all are welcome! Each lesson we will learn about a composer and listen to a selected few pieces of their music. This class is designed to introduce learners to important composers through the centuries and expose them to music of these different musical time periods. This is an excellent class if your learner is interested in music and history! Perhaps they are starting to play classical music and want to learn more about the composer behind the composition!
