The Well-Tempered Card Game: Classical & Romantic Composers April 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a traditional "quartet" game of playing cards printed with composers' portraits, biographical narrative and the titles of 52 musical works. The cards are also illustrated with musical notation showing themes from each of the 52 compositions. Music-reading ability is not required to play the game, however.
The Classical & Romantic "COMPOSERS CARD GAME" cards are gathered into "books" of four by each player, as with "Authors" card game. Thirteen of the major European composers of Western classical music of the 18th and 19th centuries are featured. Most of these great composers studied or lived, at one time or another, in either Leipzig or Vienna. Their music spans the late Baroque, the "Age of Enlightenment" Classical style, and the Romantic era.
This is an excellent family card game about music history and composers Johann Sebastian Bach (1685-1750) through Edvard Grieg (1843-1907). It can be enjoyed by just about any age from 8 to adult.
