Free For Any Grade Handouts

Classical Music History Made Easy! Composers are now better known than ever, but sometimes it can be challenging to keep up with who/what/when! Was Beethoven older than Mozart? Which iconic composers were French? German?

These guides are perfect for teachers and homeschoolers to stay organized and easily reference biographical information for composers. You'll be able to save valuable research and planning time with classical music history at-a-glance!

Would these also work as student handouts/posters?

Of course! Hand out the whole packet or include a page with your composer studies. This also introduces students to related composers from the same musical period. Additionally, students could compare geographical regions to see when and where music history was happening through the years.

How can students fully engage with these reference guides?

A great way for students to jump into music history is the included Composer Challenge! This 20-question quiz invites students to search through the guides to find the answers. Great for back-to-school and group activities!

How much information is packed into this guide?

Tons! Six full pages. You'll find 114 composers listed in chronological order from 1567 to 1937, and organized by musical period. Each composer has their birthdate, birthplace, and a popular composition listed in the guide for quick and easy referencing.

Which composers are included?

Some composers may bridge two musical periods or have a style that didn't fit neatly within their era. They are listed within the period they were born and composed in. Some earlier composers may only have a baptism date or their birthdate changed as newer calendars were introduced.
