If you missed the San Francisco Symphony’s wonderful exploration of four major works from the classical music repertoire (explicated and conducted by Michael Tilson Thomas) – then you’re in luck. If you’re a digi-phile such as myself, you can click over to the iTunes Store and download each of the full episodes here [link will launch iTunes]. What’s more, they’re available for the amazing price of just $1.99 each or you can buy all four for $7.96! A bargain for a very well-produced (and performed) series on great music.
For more information on the new season (which has begun on PBS October 15th), head on over to the San Francisco Symphony’s Keeping Score website.
The programs available on iTunes are:
- Beethoven’s Eroica
- Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring
- Copland and the American Sound
- Berlioz: Symphonie fantastique
