Eastern Lebanon County Middle School
Composer Research Page
(All Middle School Grade Levels)

This page is designed to assist ELCO Middle School Classroom Music students (and any other vistor as well) in the process of research for their assigned composers. Please follow the directions on the Composer Research Worksheet found in the Classroom Music Notebook. The composers for each grade level are listed below with helpful links in order to quickly navigate the user to a site. This assignment is very important and is 25% of the student's final Classroom Music grade. In the past, students have found conflicting information so make sure to use a variety of sources. On two occasions, ELCO Middle School students have helped to correct websites that had incorrect information because students utilized several sources in the research process.
