Tchaikovsky<br />

This course counts as a Focused<br />

Music Study course for the<br />

Language <strong>of</strong> Music Certificate<br />

Program.<br />

With his pr<strong>of</strong>ound melodic gift,<br />

Tchaikovsky also entranced audience<br />

after audience and provided<br />

us with a living soundtrack for<br />

19th century Russia. This course<br />

will give Tchaikovsky his due as a<br />

Russian nationalist and reveal how<br />

gracefully he navigated between the<br />

sometimes rough-hewn Slavocentrism<br />

<strong>of</strong> his contemporaries and<br />

the technical demands <strong>of</strong> Western<br />

cosmopolitanism.<br />

19th-Century Romantic<br />

Music: Beauty, Fantasy, and<br />

Nature<br />

This course counts as a Music Genre<br />

course for the Language <strong>of</strong> Music<br />

Certificate Program.<br />

This interdisciplinary course<br />

explores one <strong>of</strong> the most popular<br />

genres from its inception in the<br />

12th century through Vivaldi’s<br />

“Four Seasons” and Beethoven’s<br />

Sixth Symphony, his “Pastoral.”<br />

We will examine the effects <strong>of</strong><br />

nationalism, social stratification,<br />

the Industrial Revolution, and<br />

literature on 19th-century music in<br />

Europe, Scandinavia, and the Slavic<br />

countries. During our journey we<br />

will examine, listen to, and discuss<br />

some <strong>of</strong> the greatest music ever<br />

written, moving systematically by<br />

country and genre, including lied,<br />

piano, choral, symphonic, chamber<br />

music, concerto, romantic opera,<br />

and ballet.<br />

from the University <strong>of</strong> Michigan.<br />

the world.<br />
