Music is a gift. It is a profound expression of our deepest emotions.
As a child I didn't realize the value of piano lessons, concerts, and records (am I dating myself?) being played in our home.
As a parent, however, I am keenly aware that giving our children the gift of music is HUGE.

The Romantic Era was full of beautiful, lush music. As we listened to Romantic Music in Classical Conversations last week, I told the children it's "kissy kissy" music. This era was all about the expression of intense emotions.
Many of the stories about the composers of this era are dramatic and exciting, too. Truth be told, this is probably my favorite time period of music.
