Young Scholar's Guide to Composers
The Young Scholar's Guide to Composers is a new music history and appreciation course from Bright Ideas Press.
It is a good music elective for homeschoolers because the writers based the Young Scholar's Guide to Composers on the following premises:
- "Music is from the Lord. He created it, and He created us with the ability to both make and appreciate music."
- "Classical” music is uniquely part of our Western civilization."
- "Research suggests that both listening to and playing classical music aids brain development."
- "Even rudimentary exposure increases one’s level of enjoyment and understanding."
