Course Description:Despite sharing forty years in common, Johannes Brahms and Richard Wagner composed in diametrically different styles and methods, and produced almost none of the same genres, with the exception of art-songs. We'll examine their respective works and compositional techniques, and also view video examples of the greatest operas, symphonies, concertos, and keyboard works composed during this essential period of musical development. |
