What You Will Learn?

  • Hallo and welcome!.
  • Classical music is a wide, large, composite topic. If you haven't studied it, or if you are in the process of getting in touch with it, its variety and complexity can be felt as confusing or frustrating..
  • I made this course in order to give a simple outlook on the very backbone of this wonderful art and convey in a simple and inspired way the basics of its history and nature..
  • Part 3 of this series is about terminology.The lectures in there will be more talkative and less about listening to music. Still, they are about knowledge that comes really in handy.Please do not feel forced to sit through all these lectures before you go ahead to part 4. You can totally skip as much as you want and come back to them when you feel you need to get the measure of names of classical genres that you are not familiar with..
  • Part 4 is about the orchestra. We will be listening together to a great piece by Benjamin Britten that is meant to showcase the various instruments that we commonly find in a symphonic orchestra.We are going to become familiar with the voices and personality of all the instruments and have a great time with this terrific piece!.
  • Enjoy and have fun learning!.
