> Here's a great website for those who are studying the art of classical

> Eras: There are six main periods of music in history: Middle Ages, 
> Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic and Twentieth Century. By 
> clicking into this section from the main page or from the navigation strip 
> at the top, you'll come to an introduction page that has a side menu. On 
> the side menu, you will find each era of music. In each section, you will 
> learn about that era of music and if you'd like, you can click on the 
> composer link in that section and you'll find out which composers are from 
> that era as well.

> Composers: Just the idea that there are men and women out there who have 
> all of this music floating around in their heads and the talent and 
> ability to put it on paper and write all the different parts for the 
> different instruments is simply incredible! To navigate this section, I 
> clicked the link in the introduction text to see the complete listing of 
> composers. However, you can use the alphabetical navigation strip at the 
> top of the section. You will find a short biography on each composer, as 
> well as, a sampling of their work. To listen to the samples, you'll need 
> Real Player.

> Glossary: Since music has its own terminology, you may find yourself 
> wondering what they're talking about in the descriptions sometimes. If 
> that happens, just head right on over to the glossary and use the 
> alphabetical navigation at the top of the page to find that word. It's as 
> simple as that!
