Composer Study

In our efforts to become a more Charlotte Mason (CM) styled homeschool, we eventually added composer study into our routine. Like
all things CM, composer study relies on the principle of a little studied often.

Each term (6-12 weeks) you should study a single composer. The bulk of this study is simply listening to the composer’s music so that you become familiar with his style and sound. You can supplement the listening with optional activities such as notebooking or reading a biography. To read a more detailed explanation of what a CM composer study can be, read Charlotte Mason Style Composer Study. It is a general overview filled with links and resources.

Feel free to glean ideas from our past composer studies. I normally blog about our composer and also create a lens over at Squidoo with additional resources that we didn’t get to.
