Color The Classics--Composers III
Composers III From Color the Classics
Can your child name the composer who could write music he would never hear? Did you know that The Blue Danube was not accepted in Europe but when played in America it became Strauss’ greatest achievement. What famous composer fell asleep during the playing of the world famous Franz Liszt? Did you know that the Nutcracker Ballet has gotten more people interested in “classical” music than any other music in the world?
Give your children a love for "classical" music while they are young. Color the Classics will help them to understand the history behind the pieces of timeless music.
In the first book, Godly Composers, they chose men who sought after glorifying God through their music.
In the second composer book the composers were not presented in the same light. Some of the musicians honored God and some did not.
By the era of the composers in the third in the composer series, music was no longer written to glorify God. The purpose of this work is to present the lives of four composers to help you teach your children to enjoy their music.
