Good afternoon,
Thank you to everyone who sent me information on composers for our General Music 
class.  Here is the hit that several people requested.
 
 my music teacher does a research project and has some links on her page that might 
be useful...
 
http://www.websterschools.org/classrooms/mrs%5Fjones/stylinks.html
 
if that doesn't work, try putting an underscore in instead of the %5
 
Try
http://www.shambles.net/music/
and click on the "Composers" link
 
I  think you'll find this useful.
 
There are some other areas on the above music page that you will see are also 
relevant.
 
 
Try lii.org 
http://lii.org/search?m=p&query=composers&searchtype=keywords

This page is on Classical Music, but I found a ton of links off of it,
http://www.42explore.com/classmus.htm

This specifically has short bios of composers,

Composer fun, 4 games, http://www.quia.com/jg/65804.html

Not sure if she wants classical, or composers of other types of music,
there are also sites on rock and roll and jazz musicians on
http://www.42explore.com/topic.htm

This site was recommended earlier this year:

The music teacher and I do a webquest with our third graders on composers.
You can reach the quest by going to
http://www.macomb.k12.mi.us/armada/armada/armada.htm choosing Armada
Elementary from the left frame, going to the bottom of the page and clicking
on Media Center in the Specials box. There you will find a link to our
webquest. Each of the worksheet pages (Biographer, Musicologist, Archivist)
has a list of web resources at the bottom.


I have a bunch of links on my library web page. 
I would recommend the Naxos site
Naxos Classicals Learning Zone Composers
http://www.naxos.com/mainsite/default.asp?pn=Composers
Short biographies on composers, plus a discography of recordings from the Naxos 
label.
 
Hope these links may help!
