Previous classes, which began in 2008, have been on the music of: Beethoven Brahms, Tchaikovsky, Stravinsky, Shostakovich, Schubert, Bach, Schumann, Mendelssohn, Dvorak, Debussy, Ravel, Haydn and Mozart. Derald DeYoung, the teacher and Professor of Music Emeritus from Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan, states, “Mahler (1860 1911) is one of my all time favorite composers. His nine completed symphonies sum up the entire Romantic era.” And Leonard Bernstein said, “Mahler sang the last rueful songs of nineteenth-century romanticism... and showered a rain of beauty on this world that has not been equalled since.” DeYoung said, “While I will certainly miss seeing everyone and doing this class in person this year, I think that this can still be a fine quality experience and I really look forward to sharing my enthusiasm for Mahler’s music with you.”
