Learn about the life and music of Johann Sebastian Bach!

This easy open and go lesson is perfect for classrooms or home-school. No previous musical experience is necessary to facilitate these lessons.

About CONVERSATIONS WITH COMPOSERS:

All lessons are suitable for ages 4-12 years old and can be worked on together as a group or family. Accompanying the teaching time is the choice between two activities; one for young learners ages 4-8 years old and one for older learners ages 8-12 years old.

Included in each 30 minute lesson is a "Setting The Stage" section which introduces the children to what they are about to learn followed by a more informative teaching time called "Diving Deeper", and followed by a hands on "Activity Time."

Each lesson has book suggestions as well as listening suggestions that correspond with the theme of the lesson.

Within each lesson you will find the option of using a link or a QR code that links you directly to a short video or live performance featuring music by the composer.

In the appendix, I've included a sketch of the composer that can be used to either string up as a timeline or be used as a coloring/painting template to keep little hands busy during the informative section of the lesson.

Each lesson gives you a list of materials needed at the beginning of the lesson which usually includes many household items that a classroom or house would already have.

One important note is that the use of a music platform such as Apple music, Spotify or YouTube is a must when facilitating these musical lessons!

Included in this lesson:

  • Watch and listen to 'The Coffee Cantata'
  • Explore the life and music of J.S Bach
  • Overview video of J.S Bach's life
  • Bach Bingo activity for Young Learners
  • In depth study of Bach and the Organ
  • An extension option to Google Doodle where a student can design a melody and have Artificial Intelligence create a harmony in a Bach-like style.
  • Movie option suggestion (Mr. Bach Comes To Call)
  • Listening Suggestions - "Brandenburg Concertos", "Jesu Joy Of Man's Desiring", "Bach's Cello Suite", and "Toccata and Fugue in D minor."
  • Book Suggestions - "Bach To The Rescue", "Becoming Bach", and "Introducing Bach."
  • Colouring/sketching page of J.S Bach

My hope and desire with the lessons from Conversations with Composers is that through the stories, the activities, the music and the videos, children would be drawn into the fascinating world of Classical music.
