Refrain means don’t do it. A refrain in music is the part you had better not try to sing.

J. S. Bach died from 1750 to the present.

Handel was half German, half Italian and half English. He was a rather large man.

Beethoven wrote music even though he was deaf. He was so deaf he wrote loud music. He took long walks in the forest even when everyone was calling him. I guess he could not hear so good. Beethoven expired in 1827 and later died from this.

Henry Purcell is a well-known composer few people ever heard of.

Aaron Copland is one of our most famous composers. It is unusual to be contemporary. Most composers do not live until they are dead.

Agnus Dei was a woman composer famous for her church music.

An opera is a song of a bigly size.

Music sung by two people is called a duel.

Caruso was at first an Italian. Then someone heard his voice and said he would go a long way. And so he came to America.

A virtuoso is a musician with really high morals.

Probably the most marvelous fugue was the one between the Hatfields and the McCoys.

My favorite composer is opus.

A harp is a nude piano.

My very best liked piece is the Bronze lullaby.
