Music and Poetry - Approaching Beethoven's 9th. This is the fourth in a series of podcasts intended to simply walk with you through various composers and their music. Any tool, whether for music lovers, musicians or those new to "classical" music, is always helpful in this creative process of engaged listening. I offer these thoughts to anyone and everyone as a musician who has performed, studied, lived, taught and/or conducted the wide array and miscellany of musical works in the repertoire, be they familiar masterworks or gems that are less frequently performed. In this podcast, with the intention being able to eventually approach listening and talking about Beethoven's 9th (Choral) Symphony, I present an interesting opportunity for engaged and responsive listening in order to have a new perspective about the wedding of words and music - in this case, poetry and music. Most of this process is described in the podcast, so I leave much of the details for later discovery.
These podcasts are for EDUCATIONAL use only. Not to be used in any public setting by any media. I STRONGLY recommend headphones because the ambient sounds of many coffee places and offices do not afford the opportunity to fully appreciate the full range of the sound spectrum that is so difficult to replicate outside of a concert hall. Happy listening! CAUTION: Because of the nature of the wide spectrum of the volume of the music, headphones are STRONGLY encouraged. Please be safe. Do not listen to this podcast while driving.
