Programme 57: about Music- The Art of Listening: Piano Music of the 20th Century
--:--
Today we look at Keyboard music of the Piano in the twentieth century.
Many people think that this music is unlistenable, but I would like to surprise you with some truly interesting music.
I will highlight these –ism genres: Impressionism, Expressionism, Nationalism, Neoclassicism, Experimentalism (also called Aleatoric or Avante Garde, or Chance Music), and Minimalism.
Even if this is something you already know, join me anyway for music by Debussy, Ravel, Schoenberg, Bartok, Prokofiev, John Cage, Philip Glass, and Stravinsky.
