Fun and educational!, June 14, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Composers (Fandex Family Field Guides) (Misc. Supplies)
Finally my family is able to put a face, and a short biograhy, to the music they love. I used this fandex to supplement my homeschool curriculum. We were able to listen to various recordings of classical music and then look up the composer in our fandex.It worked out beautifully! It was also great listening to the classical station in the car and having our incredibly portable fandex there to answer any questions we had about the composer. As a feild guide it has been both fun and educational.

Interesting way to learn about composers, December 2, 2005
This review is from: Composers (Fandex Family Field Guides) (Misc. Supplies)
The Composers Fandex® Family Field Guide is a great overview and introduction to great composers. Covering 47 composers, it offers a portrait and short biography of each individual. Date and place of birth, date and place of death, and the composer's most popular works today are listed and many interesting facts are given.
Even after years of music lessons and a fair level of familiarity with classical music, I was surprised by what I learned through reading this guide. I was unfamiliar with a number of composers that it covered. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to get an overview of the lives and work of the world's great composers.
