Seminar Description
The masterpieces of Edward Elgar, Gustav Holst, and Ralph Vaughan Williams display a distinctly British sensibility while emanating universal appeal. We will listen to and discuss nine complete vocal, solo instrumental, and orchestral masterpieces by these British romantic composers to deepen our appreciation of their familiar works and to explore their lesser-known compositions, discovering their transcendent beauty. Eight sessions.
John Nygro is a lecturer, actor, and musician in the Chicago area with a thirty-year career in the arts whose talks have been heard at universities, libraries, and on radio.
