The Music of the Beatles will track the musical development of the band, starting from the earliest days in Liverpool and Hamburg, moving through the excitement of Beatlemania, the rush of psychedelia, and the maturity of Abbey Road. While the focus will be on the music, we will also consider how recording techniques, the music business, the music of other artists, and the culture of the 1960s affected John, Paul, George, and Ringo as they created the Beatles repertory.

Gave me a better appreciation of the Beatles' music and their place in history. The instructor was very engaging and informative. Tons of information.
Really a great course. Not so much technical musicianship, or personal stuff, but a very comprehensive journey through the evolution of their music.
