National Curriculum - Music Secondary section
Created by a genuine UK school teacher, this site is aimed mainly at other teachers of music who are gagging for subject-relevant resources on the Net. However, it is of great use to parents and children for finding supplementary ideas and links to other music sites on the Net. Coming from the all-knowing perspective of a music teacher, the site's resources are guaranteed to be spot on for what your kids' music classes will demand of them. Plenty of useful MIDI resources if you are into making music on your computer, rather than using real instruments.
More than 2000 information files about classical music.
