    The document provides musical score excerpts from the Norton Anthology of Western Music for students to practice identifying genres, composers, and approximate dates of composition.

    The two lists provided on page 2 are a list of musical genres and a list of composer names that students should keep handy to match with each musical score excerpt.

    When looking at each musical score excerpt, one should look for visible clues such as the number of musical parts, instrumentation, language of any text, and other distinguishing features to help identify the genre and composer.

    Anthology of Western Music (5th edition) one excerpt per page. Page 2
    contains a pair of lists, one of musical genres, the other of composer names.
    You should print out page 2 and keep the lists handy while you practice. Look at
    each score example and try to hear the music in your minds ear. Also look for
    visible clues, such as number of parts, instrumentation, language of text, etc.
    Now try to pick the name of a genre and a composer from the two lists. Also try
    to guess the date of composition within about 25 years. Rotate the score to see
