instruments typically fit with various styles of music. Integrating music history within your curriculum may be easier than you previ- ously thought. In fact, you may already be doing many of these activities. A quick music history lesson can be as easy as sim- ply informing the students of what they are hearing and how old (or new) the date of the piece. Use a variety of genres, textures, and timbres in your listening examples and challenge students to identify specific as- pects of the music to keep them engaged while listening. You will find students will be very interested in composers, their lives, and their music especially if you, the teach- er, are excited.
