Music Memory 2008 - 2009

ARTS EDUCATION IDEAS is proud to announce our eleventh year of publishing Music Memory curriculum materials. MUSIC MEMORY is a nationally recognized curriculum designed to give students in grades 3-6 the life-long gift of love for music of the Western tradition through an in-depth study of sixteen selections per year. Music that students will hear the rest of their lives is carefully chosen for appropriateness from the five major historical periods: Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Contemporary. Prominent composers of orchestral, vocal, choral, band, and keyboard pieces are featured. The curriculum is presented in an aural-visual format that enhances students' success in recognizing the major themes and remembering the names and composers of the selections. Building on this initial learning, there are many opportunities for deepening students' learning through extension activities. Music Memory is successfully taught across the United States. We invite you to enjoy Music Memory this coming year.

Learn the inspiring history of Music Memory and how it has enhanced the lives of school children for decades, from its roots in 1918 Texas through its resurrection in 1979 and its growth to ten states today. TxTell describes itself as "a web site that chronicles the impact of The University of Texas at Austin on the state of Texas and the world."
