Famous Classical Pieces: a free online word search

Famous classical pieces word search, free to print, for anyone who can name a symphony from its first four notes and has opinions about the tempo.

About Famous Classical Pieces

Some music announces itself in two or three notes. A snare drum starts Ravel's Bolero and doesn't let up for about fifteen minutes, and every December some church hall fills with voices for Handel's Messiah, everyone rising for the Hallelujah chorus. Then the radio plays a few bars of something in the car, and you're humming along before you've placed it.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft color on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.The level you pick sets those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
