Many ESL/EFL teachers use music with their students, and I’ve shared many related resources and ideas at The Best Music Websites For Learning English.
I’m making some new additions to that list focused on research that supports using music in the classroom:
Using Music in the Adult ESL Classroom. ERIC Digest.
I’d love to hear additional suggestions from readers….

Hola! I was reading your blog and thinking that maybe you or your readers find interesting this new language learning website. It has a lot of music videos subtitled in English, Spanish and French! Check it out! http://www.mylingo.org
Thanks!

I regularly play classical music in the classroom. It started off because our library had a load of Cds laying around, and i don’t know much about classical music. Now it’s just nice, and a talking point if nothing else. Quite often everyone will just stop what they are doing saying “oh i know this!!” when Nutcracker suite or something comes on. Great for emergent language!
