Imagine sitting down with your children wanting to teach them a few things about their musical heritage or at least some of the music that you might have a firm appreciation for). :) I happen to LOVE ragtime music...makes my feet want to move. :) I just happened to have at my fingertips a wonderful ebook that allowed me to easily share that love with my lad. His response... I LIKE IT. Can we listen to more mom?
We spent the next hour listening to various pieces of ragtime music and listening for the difference between it and Stride Piano. We both prefer the original ragtime. The piece below is one we listened to. (not linked in the ebook).

Each Lesson gives you links to videos and sites such as Classics for Kids. You are given an introductory look at each composer. This is not meant to be an in-depth look at all these composers, it is meant to give you an introduction to them and a good sampling of their music to inspire you to go on.

Just doing the basic lesson took us perhaps 20 minutes, but we had fun looking at other music by the composers. So you can easily make this lesson as long or short as you like, and you can include students from kindergarten all the way up through highschool. Pretty cool eh?
