MUSI 232 - Faust, Music, and Romanticism


0.5 unit(s)
No literary text of the early Romantic era was read more avidly than Goethe’s Faust. After its publication in 1808, composers rapidly began setting it to music. In this six-week course, we begin with a close reading of Faust Part I (in English translation), then study musical interpretations of it by Schubert, Mendelssohn, Berlioz, Liszt, and others. Kathryn Libin.

Recommended: One course in Music or German.

First six-week course.
