HEAR THE NEWS! LISTENING TO MUSIC IS BETTER THAN EVER!

Listening to Music reflects the successful and innovative approach used in Dr. Jay Zorn’s popular course in music appreciation. Written in a lively and appealing style, Listening to Music provides the foundation for acquiring a lifelong knowledge and appreciation of music. It concentrates on the effective listening skills needed to identify composers and to recognize their styles and some of their representative works–playing in the background of the social, economic, and historical influences in their lives.
