Course Description

The Secret Life of Great Classical Music

We all love music and many of us have come to love one piece of classical music or another, but what do we know about its

meaning? Is it just flowing and fleeting emotions or is there more? What makes it tick? What is the secret of classical music?

It is full of stories and meaning—always! The secrets are also in the structure of the music and in the DNA--the harmonic

changes! We will explore classical masterpieces by Bach, Brahms, Beethoven, and maybe Berg. Come, see, and hear for

yourself!
