Humanities West presents Greenberg Among Friends: Mozart, a special Thursday evening program of music and discussion with music historian Robert Greenberg and pianist Lino Rivera celebrating the life, times, and music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
For centuries the great composers have been worshiped as gods, thanks to the magnificent musical gifts they have provided. But that same worship can put their all-too-human music at arm's length by rendering it as something divine. This unique lecture/performance will explore Mozart's personality and life experiences, as well as his amazing musical contributions, in an effort to understand the living, breathing person behind the music. Robert Greenberg lectures and Lino Rivera plays Mozart on piano.
