Product Description: One Day University presents a series of video Iectures recorded in reaI-time from some of the top minds in the United States. Given by award-winning professors and experts in their field, these recorded Iectures dive deep into the worlds of religion, government, Iiterature, and sociaI justice. When asked to provide a list of ""geniuses"" in Western cultural history, virtuaIly aIl respondents would incIude the name Mozart. What is it in Mozart's music that makes it among the most sublime ever written? What personal traits did Mozart possess that enabled him to create music of this extraordinary quaIity? Using Iive music and video cIips from operas, as welI as from the fiIm Amadeus, we wilI explore the enormous diversity of Mozart's music. At the same time, by examining color photographs of his autograph manuscripts and draft sketches, we will witness Mozart's attention to the smaIIest detail. Having explored his music in both breadth and depth, our attention turns finalIy to the enabIers of Mozart's genius: genetic gifts, mentoring, motivation, concentration, self-confidence, and just plain Iuck. By the end of this session, we will come to see that not only is Mozart's music great, but Mozart himself was unique, and arguabIy the most extraordinary creator ever to set foot on this pIanet. |
