Defining the String Quartet II is designed to appeal to participants from different musical backgrounds, regardless of musical literacy. In order to earn a Verified Certificate highlighting the knowledge and skills you gain during the course you will need to upgrade to this option and complete activities marked "graded.” Although the ability to read music is not required to take the course and earn a Certificate, we occasionally supply musical notation for those who can. The optional activities marked ♪♪ assume that ability.
Some of the terminology introduced in this course may be new to participants. Nevertheless, we think most participants will find the course highly enriching to their musical understanding, whether or not the terms and analytical concepts are familiar to them in advance. Keep in mind that music students and scholars today find themselves constantly in the process of looking up unfamiliar terms, right up to the level of professors attending conferences, and we believe that developing this skill is an important part of musical education. We encourage you to soak in the discourse, use dictionaries and online resources, and learn through dialogue with fellow participants.
Taught by music historian and Stanford Professor Stephen Hinton in collaboration with the university's ensemble-in-residence, the St. Lawrence String Quartet, you’ll be given a critical overview of Beethoven’s quartets and their reception history. Using a mix of lectures, discussions and copious demonstrations, Professor Hinton will focus in detail on three complete quartets: one early, one middle, and one late. As a special course feature, you’ll view live performances by the SLSQ recorded in Stanford's Bing Concert Hall.
