This course is a truly unique insight into the structure and meaning of a variety of works over hundreds of years. Prof Greenburg, I feel I should call him Bob, is the knowledgeable, enthusiastic, unpretentiousness guide who explains the composer and works in the context of their time and personal life in language that is easy to understand. There are detailed notes that can be referred to as well. Cannot recommend this highly enough. I'm am about to start my Greenburg course, 30 orchestral works. Thank you Bob!
