As we head into the upcoming semester, we will be exploring the works of some of the greatest composers and their music. To make your studies more enjoyable and to provide some background and context, I have designed some biographical coloring pages featuring Stravinsky, Tchaikovsky, and Debussy! These Great Composers coloring pages showcase these musical geniuses and offer insights into their fascinating lives and contributions to the world of music. I hope that they will be especially useful to Classical Conversations tutors and directors as they lead the study of these composers within their communities!

Igor Stravinsky: A Revolutionary Composer:
Igor Stravinsky was a groundbreaking figure in the world of music. Born in Russia in 1882, his compositions such as “The Rite of Spring” challenged traditional musical conventions and ignited new artistic movements. Stravinsky’s daring approach to music continues to inspire composers to this day. As your children color the Stravinsky coloring page, they can imagine the innovative spirit that propelled his compositions.
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Master of Melodies:
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky was a celebrated Russian composer born in 1840. His lush and emotive melodies, including “Swan Lake,” “The Nutcracker,” and “1812 Overture,” are beloved worldwide. Tchaikovsky’s ability to capture profound emotions and transport listeners through his music is truly extraordinary. As your children color the Tchaikovsky coloring page, they can appreciate the beauty and enchantment that his melodies evoke.
