Discovering Music makes a great homeschool curriculum for middle school and high school.

The arts are often viewed today as extra-curricular.  But music was one of the seven liberal arts considered essential to a Classical education.  And the arts provide one of the best insights into a particular time and place.  Imagine someone 200 years from now trying to understand today’s American culture without ever considering our books, music, films, or television programs.  Those artistic forms contain a lot of information about our culture – information that can only be grasped by experiencing that art.  The same is true for any historical period.  When a student is exposed to the art and music of a time and place, the historic personalities and events are brought into clearer focus and linked together in more meaningful ways.
