Composer Project!
Listen to one minute of each of the following pieces. You can listen to the first minute, last minute, or click on the time bar and choose a random minute to listen to. Write down if you liked that minute of the piece or if you didn't. After you have listened to all 10 pieces, choose your TOP 3 favorites and write them down on the assignment sheet. Bring this assignment sheet to Miss Howard or Miss Rodriguez and we will assign you (hopefully) one of your top 3. After you have been assigned you piece and composer, research that composer and find the information outlined in the essay section of the paper we gave you. Wikipedia is an okay source for this project. The paper tells you everything else you need to know! If you lost/misplaced your paper, click on the gray button below to download another copy.
