It’s March 20, 2020, and just about every band in America, if not the entire world, is shut down. So I’ve created (and, as of March 30, 2020, revised) a scavenger hunt for this site – I hope it helps keep you connected to the music we all love in this very most troubling of times. Download MS Word and PDF versions for home use, or just go from the list below. Use the form or my email on the Contact page to submit any responses, questions, or suggestions.
Now, look around this site and see if you can find the composer, title, and length for:
- One symphony by a female composer
- One piece by an African American composer
- One piece written before 1900
- One piece by a British composer about another British composer
- One suite by a French composer
- One piece by a composer who was Russian, French, and American
- Two pieces with the same title
- Three pieces by different composers named Steven
- One piece that also has a choir version
- One piece that won an award
- One piece by an LGBTQ+ composer from before 2000
- One piece from the 1920s by a German composer
- One piece with a state in its title
- One piece with a color in its title
- One chamber piece by a Dutch composer
BONUS 1: One piece more than 30 minutes long
BONUS 2: One piece not featured on this website that you’d like to see here
BONUS 3: One suggestion for a fun scavenger hunt clue
Enjoy!
