Music Talks with Children, a classical book, has been considered important throughout the human history, and so that this work is never forgotten we at Alpha Editions have made efforts in its preservation by republishing this book in a modern format for present and future generations. This whole book has been reformatted, retyped and designed. These books are not made of scanned copies of their original work and hence the text is clear and readable.
This first book includes the composers Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven. Thomas Tapper originally published each composer biography to be cut, pasted, and bound into a book. This already bound printing has been formatted for students to cut and paste biographical sketches into the story. They will love having a book of their own to accompany their listening studies of the great musicians.
