The course pursues three fundamental learning objectives:
1. to introduce students to listening and to the knowledge of the great classical-romantic orchestral repertoire;
2. to deepen the language, forms and genres of symphonic music through the analysis of some masterpieces of the repertoire;
3. to provide the critical tools to understand the socio-cultural framework and the historical and aesthetic meaning of the symphonic compositions of the classical-romantic era, with particular reference to the Ninth Symphony of L.van Beethoven
