The Story of Music is a survey course designed to familiarize you with the history of classical music from the medieval era to the present day. Video presentations produced by the BBC and narrated by composer and musicologist Howard Goodall trace the ongoing progression of musical expression in Western culture. Explore major musical style periods with additional commentary and musical examples appropriate to each era. Information regarding musical notation, musical tuning, the history of the piano, and the story of opera will round out our study.
