Review of 'The Teaching Company: How to Listen to and Understand Great Music: Complete Set - 48 Audio CDs with Course Guidebooks (The Great Courses: Fine Arts and Music, Course # 700)' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Pretty good. Exceptional were the sections in early music through the Renaissance (my personal favorite) and the final content on the atonality of Schoenberg. The continuing context through the centuries if different musical ideas are very clear in this course, and they tie together disparate musical styles into a cogent continuum.
