I am in need of assistance!

Hello all!
Well, anyway, back to the point. I have a project due Tuesday and I figured before I go googling for hours, I'd first come here, in case any of you know any useful sites or something that can help me with said project. I need to find popular music from the times of famous scientists and download it. I chose Isaac Newton, Marie Currie, James Watson, and Albert Einstein! Yay!
(obviously that isn't the whole project, just something I have to do.)

Anyways if y'all can help, then I'd greatly appreciate it.

Well, Einstein, at least, lived quite recently (1879-1955) so music there shouldn't be much of a problem.
Actually, I don't think that Watson is dead, so music should be quite simple there, also.


Oh, and Mrs. Curie was a contemporary of Einstein's, so once you find music for him you're set for her.


So, really, all you'll have trouble with is Newton. He lived in the late 17th/early 16th century, so Baroque would've been in style then.

However, I'll leave it to you to find actual contemporary composers, this is, after all, your project.

Alright, thanks!
Newton is the one I'm having most trouble with, but I think I'm getting somewhere, so I'm good.
Thanks again!

Try Scarlatti for Newton - I think they coincided
