The 8th Grade Music students are learning about, listening to, and evaluating the earliest music known to Man. We began our unit learning about nomads and the most primitive music and instruments, followed by the music of the ancient Egyptian, Greek, and Roman empires, and ending with the music of the Renaissance Period.
