Agnes Moore Fryberger (May 30, 1868 - September 16, 1939) was an American music educator, lecturer, and author, as well as a clubwoman. She was a pioneer in the northwestern U.S. in lecture recitals on opera. Fryberger served as the Educational Director of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra (1924-25),[1] and of the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra (1926-30).[2] She was the first director of music appreciation at the University of Louisville. Her book, Listening Lessons in Music (1916), used in France, England, and the Philippines, was the first text that incorporated phonograph records into a school lesson's grading process.[3]
