Ode to Music

1999
As our title suggests, our theme is based on "Music". In this webpages, we aim to enable music 'illiterates' to learn more about the world of music, and that includes things like it's history, composers of the past and the different characteristics of each period that contributes to it being special in its own way. 'Literate' musicians will also be able to go into the details and roots of music, allowing them to be more informed and knowledgeble. Our History Chamber will house the insight to the different periods of music history, such as the Medieval, Classical and Romantic music. Surfers will be able to get information about the composer's life and their music. We will list the greatest composers that had ever lived in his or her era and basically introduce their style of composing and things that happened in their life. Along with all the information also comes the different melodies...... Whilst you are reading each composer's information, the background will be playing a piece of their better known compositions. There will also be many pictures accompanied by captions for explanation. All in all, our web page will be a journey through the history of music, making learning enjoyable and fruitful! A true "Ode to Music"!
