Dear Readers,
What do you think of when you thing 'classical' or 'classic'? Do you think of the musical style? Good for you, that's very cultured of you. Do you think classic cars? That's good as well. YOu have good taste in cars. Do you think of ancient cultures such as Rome or Greece? Those were classical times.
That's what we talked about today in Music 101 at BYU. Classical music was during the time of several different revolutions, including the American and French revolutions. Our class does not seem very organized, but then again, how can you organize something that varied so much around the world throughout history. Music is a language all to itself. Art and music are all language that are universal.
It's hard to stay awake when your roommates keep you up til midnight or later. Not to mention this class does not particularly catch your interest. Alas, staying awake is a must and learning all you can is ordained of our Heavenly Father. Thus I watch and listen as Dr. Ammons goes on about elite composers who wrote music for the masses during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
Let me know what you are up to this summer. I love to hear from people. :)
