Still not belonging to the first level of basic knowledge of music, FORM is a crucial concept that is truly necessary to anyone who wants to take a deeper step in his/her musical experience.
Form embodies the order, the architecture, the logic that music needs and is expression of. Getting a grasp on the form of a piece allows the listener to be in the driver seat and follow confidently the development and the flow of the music, avoiding becoming passive and getting lost through the often lenghty (but grand and magnificent) pieces that are common within classical music.
In this course we are going to understand deeply the idea of form and its crucial role within art in general and of course music, and then cruise through the most important and common types of form that are crossed listening to classical music.
We will listen to several examples of pieces keeping track of the formal architecture that are based on, sometimes enjoying going deep into them during sweet, full music appreciation lectures about memorable and truly heart-shaking pieces.
Join and enjoy, music won’t sound the same!
