Program Notes Database of Composers' biographies & list of works

I need a database for the purpose of saving Classical Music Program notes.
Classical Music program notes are made up of composer biographies and brief
articles about their compositions. I imagine TWO major files: A Composers
File and a File of Musical Compositions. RELATIONSHIP: For each Composer,
there would be multiple Compositions. --- Composers: Name, Birth year & year
of Death, Birthplace, Musical Era, Several biographical text paragraphs.
Musical Compositions: Composer's Last Name, Title of Work, A Subtitle,
Several paragraphs of text describing the work. ALSO It is probably wise to
add a column for the musical instrument(s) that used in each composition.

In the Table Wizard, select "Personal" and look at the [Recordings] and
[Recording Artists] Table designs. I think that [Recording Artists]
would work well for composers, too; just rename it to [Composers]. You
can easily add the fields that you need that aren't already supplied in
the sample Tables. Other sample Tables might work for you, too, but at
some point it takes longer to examine them than it does to just add the
fields you know you need.
