Sherrane, Robert. "Music History 102." Internet Public Library. Internet Public Library, n.d. Web. 26 Jul 2011. <http://www.ipl.org/div/mushist/middle/index.html>.
This is a website about all of music history. On the main menu it groups music into historical periods and provides a brief description of the period as well as a brief synopsis of the history. On the page for each musical period there is an overall description of the music of the period and the website also has biographies for notable composers of the period. There are many very important composers not listed on this website, but it has a good overview.
This website would serve as a good place for students to research and read about music history. This would not work for a source that students could use for their papers, but it would be a good starting place for students to get a good idea what they should be looking up. Also the fact that this is an electronic resource is good because too often nowadays students are able to pay more attention to things they view electronically rather than in paper form.
