Lecture 1 - Introduction to Listening to Music Professor Wright introduces the course by suggesting that "listening to music" is not simply a passive activity one can use to relax, but rather, an active and rewarding process. He argues that by learning about the basic elements of Western classical music, such as rhythm, melody, and form, one learns strategies that can be used to understand many different kinds of music in a more thorough and precise way -- and further, one begins to understand the magnitude of human greatness. Professor Wright draws the music examples in this lecture from recordings of techno music, American musical theater, and works by Mozart, Beethoven, Debussy and Strauss, in order to introduce the issues that the course will explore in more depth throughout the semester. Reading assignment: None assigned Credits: Professor Wright's course contains copyrighted material, including portions of musical works, the use of which may not have been specifically authorized by the copyright owner.

No Filter Grayscale Sepia Nostalgia Hazy Days Orange Love Lomo Top 10 Composers You Don’t Know The Arts It is very possible that you may know one or two of these composers, but unless you are a student of music or a great classical music fanatic, the chances are you don’t, though you have probably heard some of their music in films. These are not film composers normally – they are classical composers in their own right. They are great pioneers in classical music from the 20th century. As you can see, the Americans dominate the field a little (that may just be my personal preference though.) 1. Here we have the Schnittke Concerto Gross for 2 Violins – movement 2: Toccata. 2. There is no doubt that Ives is American’s most American composer. 3. The video is not his, but the music is. 4. Crumb received a lot of exposure when some of his music (Night of the Electric Insects from Black Angels) was featured in the Exorcist. 5. Gubaidulina’s music is marked by the use of unusual instrumental combinations. 6. This is the Xenakis Synaphai pour piano et 86 musiciens. 7. 8. 9. 10.
