Classical Destinations Educational - Getting every child in every classroom to engage with music. Video, audio, interactive and printed materials combine to give young people the opportunity to explore the sounds, styles and contexts of Western classical music. Classical Destinations Educational is a unique multimedia classroom music resource for the 10 to 14 age group in middle and lower secondary schools. CDE uses the latest technologies to bring music from different times and places to life and to flourish in a classroom environment. The series links the past with the present, it gives a contemporary relevance to the genre of classical music and it provides a series of ‘toolkits’ that pupils can use to create their own music. The series contains hours of high-definition video, lots of interactive music scores, quizzes and challenges, and hundreds of printed materials for teachers and their pupils. Each of the six titles in the series provides up to 13 hours of classroom activities and, with school-copying rights included, this amazing and ambitious new resource offers fantastic value for money. This is a compelling curriculum resource, written by UK teachers, based around the National Curriculum structure of performing, composing and appraising, and underpinned at each stage by clear Learning Outcomes.
