Screenwriter David Misch of Mork and Mindy and Saturday Night Live presents a course on music which uses one of the oldest forms of humor: satire.
Explore the world of musical satire in a variety of genres, cultures, and eras, especially America since 1950. We’ll cover Horace and Juvenal, opera, Yankee Doodle, slave satire, Gilbert & Sullivan, the Gershwins, the Beatles, Randy Newman, Monty Python, Pete Seeger, Spinal Tap, Saturday Night Live, Spamalot, Tom Lehrer, Al Yankovic, Stephen Sondheim, South Park, and Crazy Ex-Girlfriend.
No background in music necessary and because satire is often dependent on social and historical events, this course is as much cultural history as music appreciation.
