Description
Great music is a language unto its own, a means of communication of unmatched beauty and genius. And it has an undeniable power to move us in ways that enrich our lives - provided it is understood.
If you have ever longed to appreciate great concert music, to learn its glorious language and share in its sublime pleasures, the way is now open to you, through this series of 48 wonderful lectures designed to make music accessible to everyone who yearns to know it, regardless of prior training or knowledge. It's a lecture series that will enable you to first grasp music's forms, techniques, and terms - the grammatical elements that make you fluent in its language - and then use that newfound fluency to finally hear and understand what the greatest composers in history are actually saying to us.
And as you learn the gifts given us by nearly every major composer, you'll come to know there is one we share with each of them - a common humanity that lets us finally understand that these were simply people speaking to us, sharing their passion and wanting desperately to be heard. Using digitally recorded musical passages to illustrate his points, Professor Greenberg will take you inside magnificent compositions by Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Verdi, Wagner, Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, and more. Even if you have listened to many of these illustrative pieces throughout your life - as so many of us have - you will never hear them the same way again after experiencing these lectures.

"'Boy, do I have a lot to learn!'" Anyone who's ever picked up a musical instrument of any kind - from the first caveman banging rocks to that little kid at the guitar shop - has thought that. I know I did. I'd been trying for years to break in to the music scene, to show everyone my chops, to make my mark. And I was good. But I wasn't great. I knew that there was something wrong. Then the teacher showed up...."

Between 1861 and 1865, the clash of the greatest armies the Western hemisphere had ever seen turned small towns, little-known streams, and obscure meadows in the American countryside into names we will always remember. In those great battles, those streams ran red with blood-and the United States was truly born.

Fantastic
Robert Greenberg is so entertaining with the history and anecdotes related to music and time period. It puts all of it into perspective. The explanation of music theory, tempo, terminology was very informative. Thank you. It made me appreciate music even more. Have a great day!

Very Engaging
Having never practised or studied music, this survey course was both relatively simple, and challenging enough to keep me hooked. The Prof is very engaging, and peppers the material with humor, context, and helpful analogy. All this, and excellent praying and delivery (I initially mistook him for Alec Baldwin).
Well done All!

Listening sparked my passion for classical music
I first heard this lecture series almost six months ago, and it prompted me to start listening in a much greater breadth and depth to the classical repertoire, a listening experience infused with a new joy and profundity of understanding. This survey course, almost 50 lectures long, does a heroic job of covering the various compositional elements, stylistic periods, important composers and foundational pieces of orchestral music, and never feels drawn out or repetitive. There is a vast amount of content Dr. Greenberg conveys, liberally leavened, as one might expect, with samples of the music under discussion.
I must admit, it did take a while to get used to Prof. Greenberg's presentation persona of jocular bonhomie, a style that felt forced, though probably developed from a career trying to keep students awake and engaged through lectures. While initially irritating, I acclimatised eventually and found it less distracting as the series progressed and never so offputting that it took away from the educational content.
Overall, an excellent foundational course for appreciating and understanding the Western musical canon. I'm glad I listened to it and glad I continue to bring some of the music I learned about here into my life.

Factual inaccurate garbage.
Greenberg invents many stories in order to buttress ideological arguments intended to debase and deconstruct western classical music. Another academic hack of the usual type.

Great info but too cutesy
Great music and great ideas don't need attempts to use anachronisms and sweeping unsupported judgments to make them relevant. I listen to lectures because I want to learn, not because I want to be entertained by the speaker's cleverness. That being said, despite Greenberg's annoying approach, this is a useful lecture series.
