Join music educator and passionate historian Kinga Krupa for a captivating journey through the rich and varied landscape of Western music history. In this five-part lecture series, Kinga will guide participants through the defining eras of music, from the sacred chants of the Middle Ages to the experimental soundscapes of the 20th Century.
Mondays 28 July, 4 August, 11 August, 18 August, 25 August. 10am - 12pm
Each session will explore a distinct musical era:
• Middle Ages & Renaissance
• Baroque
• Classical
• Romantic
• 20th Century
Through engaging lectures, guided listening, and multimedia presentations, participants will gain insight into the historical context, key composers, instruments of the time, musical forms, and compositional techniques that shaped each period. Significant works will be played—and in the case of opera, occasionally watched—to highlight stylistic developments and bring each era vividly to life.
