How to Listen to and Understand Great Music

...with Robert Greenberg

"Music—the most abstract and sublime of all the arts—is capable of transmitting an unbelievable amount of expressive, historical, and even philosophical information to us, provided that our antennas are up and pointed in the right direction. A little education goes a long way to vitalizing and rendering relevant a body of music that many feel is beyond their grasp? - Professor Greenberg, the host and creator of this program. In this fantastic course that will literally change and enrich your life and listening skills, you'll be engrossed in Professor Greenberg's captivating lessons that let you see music for what it really is: a universal, non-verbal language that can soothe, teach, evoke emotion and entertain people from every walk of life. Professor Greenberg says “The skills one brings to listening to music—imagination; abstract, non-concrete thinking; intuition; and instinctive reaction and trusting those instincts—have gone uncultivated in our educational system and culture for too long...We become more aware of our shared humanity and the wisdom and vision of others...Good music is fun to listen to, relatively inexpensive—we can do it by ourselves or with others—and there are any number of ways to expand our knowledge and appreciation of the art." Let Professor Greenberg treat you to his animated teachings on how to appreciate the abstract art that is music.
