What you will learn

In this four-week lecture series, adult participants will enrich their understanding of music by engaging with the fundamental elements involved in musical perception through group discussion, recorded listening examples, and live demonstrations of musical concepts.

Participants in this course will engage with diverse musical works that will be sure to enhance your enjoyment of summer. We will explore masterworks with a summer theme by such composers as Mozart, Ravel, Tchaikovsky, Aaron Copland, and Duke Ellington. Join us for a weekly musical vacation!
