Classical Convert

Hot Monday Linkage

Tooooooo tired to type properly. It might be MLK day, but as a lowly grad student, that doesn’t exist in terms of not working. My weekend was filled with hockey games, and sake bombs, and Delta Gamma singing songs about what they would rather do than fight. To negatively cap all the fun stuff off with, today is the start of the new semester, and with utmost dismay and misery I am yet again forced to do a class at 08:40 in the morning.

However, between all of the happenings and hijinx, I managed to bookmark a couple of quality, music-based links which I shall humbly lay at your feet and/or floor. Firstly, there is Ravinia U featuring a very nicely put together introductory guide to classical music. Secondly, there is musictheory.net, which has a bunch of flash based tutorials on basic musical theory, perfect for ignorati such as myself.

PS, The Mahler is better and better.
