How does one define classical music?
Who was the audience that originally
listened to classical music over the centuries?
How can one recognize the
different periods of classical music?
What is the plot to the fourth movement
of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony?
In this four lecture series, “Enjoyment of Classical Music,” every other week we will discuss these questions and many others. I will share my classical music experience over the years and discuss topics from previous courses I’ve taught at UMASC.Â
