Have to share this book- for those looking for music ideas

I had ordered it from Barnes & Noble a couple weeks ago and picked it up today.

When I ordered it I thought it would just be about the parts of the orchestra- the instruments. But NO! It goes into different eras of music, the main composers for those eras, and the different instruments for each era, history of each instrument, ect. It's amazing!

 

We have this book, too! It is a great book!

 

need to go there this week end and check it out thanks

 

Kris, you may need to have them order it. They didn't have it in the store here.

Can't wait to start using it today. Now all I need to do is find printables of the instruments for dd to label and color.
