- What is Music Listening Masters (FMLM)?
Music Listening Masters is a classical music listening club offered to 2nd through 5th graders attending Hicks Elementary. Students study 12 pieces of classical music and have to be able to identify them on the optional LISD contest day after hearing only 20 seconds of that piece! Students have to know the name of the selection, major work (if the piece has one) and the name of the composer.

- How do I study?
You will receive a list of all of the names of the pieces and their composers in a "passport" format, along with a notebook with additional listening maps and materials. Study these and be able to match the title of the piece to the name of the composer.
