The purpose of this study is to recognize the importance of 'character', which is an important keyword in the era of the 4th revolution, and to approach the teaching method through the life of Haydn and his music among various methods of character education. The purpose of this study was to investigate the research hypothesis that the convergence education of music and character brings positive changes in pre-and post-recognition of sub-elements of character virtues. As a research method, character education was conducted through class activities using Haydn's life and music for a total of 6 times. The result shows the change in pre-and post-cognition of sub-elements of personality virtues, and statistically significant (p<0.01) in all virtues of character education. Activity-oriented classes through the life and music of a composer were worthy for the effective character education. A further study would be meaningful by applying various teaching activities if the scope of study is expanded.
