Olivia Arnold, music instructor at Cloud County Community College, will be offering music history lectures on the Classical and Romantic eras. Classical music, regarded as structured and elegant, led by figures like Haydn and Mozart, clashes against the raw emotions and virtuosity of Romantic music, from Beethoven and Liszt to Tchaikovsky and Fauré. How did musical ideas and tastes change so dramatically over these roughly 150 years? This three-session class will highlight composers, educators, historical movements, and musicians that shaped the development of these musical eras.
