History of Music Part 1

A HISTORY OF WESTERN MUSIC… ABRIDGED

Western music is an integral part of our culture, but rarely do we take the time to learn about how motets, symphonies, operas, nocturnes, musicals and more came to be. In this four part series, join Joshua Borths, Director of Education at Arizona Opera, on a journey from the music of Ancient Greece to the songs of today. Celebrate the sounds of the past, and what they reveal about the world of today. The cost for the lecture series is $60. 

Sacred Beginnings

The foundations of Western music can be traced back to the Ancient Greeks. Learn about the basics of Western music through Greek philosophy and how we retained these ideas in sacred music up to the Renaissance.
