A Must for Elementary Music Teachers and students

"Fantastic series, well researched and top drawer productions.
These six films are an excellent springboard for grades 2-6 kids to introduce a few classical composers. The films are fictional stories of one child who comes in contact with a composer. This method makes the movies interesting to kids. That aspect is fiction, however the historical aspects and settings are factual.
I show these on a yearly basis to my elementary school general music students and highly, highly recommend them to other music teachers. They're perfect for sub plans when you can't get a music teacher to take your place. Now all you have to do is find somebody who can operate a DVD player and TV. Good luck!"

"I agree with the reviewer that said that these DVD are great for elementary music classes. I have often used them when I need substitute lesson plans. I use them with grade 6. The story lines are fictional but based on the composer's life and times. The stories are thought provoking. It keeps the students attention."
