Join musicologist Priscilla Pawlicki as she offers two new courses at the Pasadena Conservatory of Music that are sure to awaken the music lover in you. Chamber Music in Pasadena 2009-10 is a two-quarter course that explores the upcoming season of Pasadena's finest chamber music organizatons. Repertoire from Camerata Pacifica, Coleman Chamber Music, Ensemble Green, Pacific Serenades and Southwest Chamber Music will be discussed in class before the concerts with lectures, recordings and some live performance. Sharpen your listening skills, acquaint yourself with a remarkably varied body of works and enhance your concert-going experiences in a course designed for the general listener and musician alike. The class meets every Wednesday from 7 to 9:15 pm beginning September 23. Twentieth-Century Masters: Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Bartók and Shostakovich, Tuesday from 10:00 am to 12:15 pm, explores the classics of contemporary music. As composers sought new modes of expression in a changing world after 1900, musical styles became richer and more complex than at any other time in Western music. Schoenberg's emancipation of dissonance and his development of the 12-tone system brought about a dramatic schism with the music of the past. Stravinsky's early ballets exploited rhythm in a new way - free from the tyranny of the barline as he described the Rite of Spring, his famous early work that provoked a riot at its premiere in 1913. Bartók colored his unique style with the distinctive rhythms and melodic phrases of Eastern European folk music, while Shostakovich, in his extraordinary cycles of string quartets and symphonies, chronicled his experiences in contemporary Soviet society, declaring that ...art registers its firm protest against evil and oppression.
