Music is an essential part of just about everyone’s lives. It fills the silent spaces of our day, underscores the important moments in our lives, and transports us to another world. In this podcast, Kutztown University Composition students have collaborated by considering a song and talking about why it’s so great. Thinking beyond the music, including both the technical and emotional elements of a song results in a deeply personal piece of work. Several styles, genres, and modes have been combined to create a cool, multimedia class project. Here is our class podcast and playlist.
