Description
Music listeners have been saturated with classical or serious music since childhood through film and television scores, radio jingles, and even popular songs; often without recognizing its roots. This class will provide examples of how serious music has inspired pop music, especially in the 1930s through the 1950s. You might discover that you know a lot more about classical music than you think!
