Product Information

"A high school music instructor…didn’t want to return the program…because he was so engrossed by the presentation and content.”
— Learning and Leading with Technology

Switched on Sound will challenge you to explore the works of major composers of the 20th Century, including Debussy, Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Ives, Gershwin, and Reich. You will also learn to analyze and evaluate the musical works in the context of important literary and artistic movements. Anu Kirk, a musician and Duke TIP faculty member, guides you through a century of composers, masterpieces, cultural influences, and technological developments. By the end of the course, you will be listening to music with new appreciation and with a critic’s ear.
