Classical music worksheet - comparing two pieces by Beethoven.

This is a great introduction lesson to the composer Beethoven. It’s a chance for students to learn to compare two contrasting pieces (these are easily accessible on YouTube - 1st Mvt of Moonlight Sonata and Für Elise). This single lesson activity will work perfectly for class lessons, homework or a cover lesson.

The worksheet starts with some basic historical facts about Beethoven and simple comprehension questions.

Then there is a comparison question where students listen to 1st Mvt of Moonlight Sonata and Für Elise. These pieces are easily found on music streaming sites. Students will describe the musical features of both pieces and then look for similarities. This is a great opportunity to develop understanding of musical elements and lead into to class discussion work about the music that they are listening to.

This worksheet links with the Middle School Music Curriculum that is available to purchase on Passionate About Music Education page.
