Description

Mr. Wood explores the concept that music is experienced in time, not space. Composers have invented ingenious ways of structuring sound so that time can be fused together. We’ll explore some of these tools and tricks and learn how masterpieces have arisen from counterpoint, sonata-allegro form, strophic writing, and many others. The ingenuity and creativity of composers comes to the fore as we see how they balance novelty and familiarity to unify their works.
