Description
This book is designed to serve as a companion to the Discovering Music Video Lectures and the Discovering Music text. In this new 2nd edition, the outline of 17 units covering the Common Practice Period from 1600 to 1914 has not changed a bit. Because the textbook was enlarged so much, they decided to extract the student material (exercises, viewing guides, projects), add and revise here and there, and give this material its own book.
Answers are provided in the online Teacher's Manual. The teacher's manual is available for download for a small fee at: www.professorcarol.com/professor-carols-store . The course includes four rather rigorous exams for students taking the course for credit. The exams are to be taken at the end of Units 6, 10, 14, and 17. The new student workbook is spiral-bound with 222 pages, which should make it convenient to use. ~Amber

Category Description for Professor Carol's Discovering Music
The Discovering Music course combines music history (learning about composers) with music appreciation (learning about their music) and shows how they interweave with as well as impact the intricate fabric of western culture. The scope of the course is breathtaking – a survey of 300 years (right before 1600 to the beginning of WWI) of Western Music and Arts. The author, Carol Reynolds, is a well-loved professor of music history who supplies students with an abundance of primary and secondary sources and encourages her students to learn from them.
In the revised and expanded 2nd edition, course components include a set of 8 DVDs, a spiral-bound Workbook, a Textbook and access to online music and other resources. These are all included in the Set. The Workbook provides lists of key figures, timelines of notable dates, vocabulary, projects, viewing guides, quizzes, and more. The Textbook is 235 pages with lessons to read, vocabulary, lists of “Who’s Who,” and a glossary. The Teacher Manual is recommended if taking the course for credit. The Teacher’s Manual is no longer available in print, but can be downloaded from the author’s site for a small fee. Featured musical selections that are referenced in the course materials are available for listening online.
