Jeremy Yudkin Will Lecture For OLLI04:00PM / Monday, May 18, 2009
PITSFIELD, Mass. - Jeremy Yudkin, Professor of Music at Boston University and a Visiting Professor of Music at Oxford University, will lecture for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at BCC (OLLI) Distinguished Speakers Series on What Makes It Great: Wit and Genius of Musical Masterpieces. The lecture takes place on Saturday, June 13th, from 10:30am until noon, at Berkshire Community College, K111.
The substance of Yudkin’s presentation will focus on what distinguishes a great work from one that is merely good. We take for granted that Shakespeare, Mozart, and Rodin are great but we don’t often ask ourselves “why.” Professor Yudkin will address the “why” and “how” of greatness in musical works of Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven.
Dr. Yudkin is a gifted lecturer known for his ability to combine musical analysis with biographical background, historical anecdotes, and humor to describe what goes into creating a musical composition. Past audiences have commented that Dr. Yudkin teaches his audiences how to listen to music with greater pleasure and insight.
During the summer, every Friday and Saturday in the Lenox Library, Dr. Yudkin presents pre-concert lectures for all Tanglewood concerts.
The cost for the lecture is $10.00 for OLLI members and $15.00 for non-members. To make reservations, call the OLLI office at (413)-236-2190 or visit www.BerkshireOLLI.org. |
