TTC Video – Concert Masterworks

These lectures give you the tools of vocabulary and the structural fundamentals most of us, no matter how much we love music, have never acquired-even if you’ve taken “music appreciation” or learned to play an instrument at a basic level. Even more important, you gain a knowledge of the structural conventions original audiences took for granted, allowing you to share the musical experiences those audiences had when they were surprised or challenged by a composer’s departure from those conventions. With the tools provided by this course, you can understand a composer’s surrender to the status quo … or his defiance of it. And you’ll be able to experience, as those first audiences did, the music’s full intellectual and expressive impact.
