Give your children a love for
"classical" music while they are young. Color the Classics (Godly
Composers) will help them to understand the history behind the pieces of
timeless music. By coloring the illustrations, as they listen to music, while
you retell the short biographies, your children will delight in these
composers, understand musical concepts and become familiar with their music.
Godly Composers includes:
Vivaldi, Bach, Handel, and Haydn.
How the Program Works
Have the child start coloring or painting an illustration.
Take the information from the book that describes that illustration
and retell this information as a story.
Play the music that belongs to the illustration.
Have the children finish the picture.
This multi-sensory approach will lock the experience in your child's
mind.
The original purchasers of these books
have the right to reproduce the illustrations for use with their own children
only.
(Total time for
Godly Composers CD: approx. 55 minutes)
As an introduction to the world of fine, God-honoring music, this is a wonderful series. With short, funny, interesting biographies of each featured composer, these go a long way to sparking interest for study. Understanding the history and the difficult conditions behind such works as Handel's Water Music Suite and Fanny Crosby's To God Be The Glory brings the music alive. Audios include a sampling of each composers' works, and books include wonderful pictures for coloring as well as biographies and a list of recommended reading (for those so engrossed by the stories they need to learn more!). The book and CD are included in the sets or you can get the books separately in case you have more than one student. A few Combo Sets are available, which are great if you are interested in more than one set. These Combo Sets each include two of the normal sets; they include two different books and then just one CD, but the CD includes absolutely everything from the two CDs in the normal sets. ~ Genevieve
