If anyone has taken Sheldon Marcus' Music Appreciation class at the Latin School before and was disappointed that it was cancelled I wanted to let you know that it is being offered again.
I have taken the class many times and love that it includes a live performance by the Civic Orchestra. Sheldon's knowledge and presentation are amazing. He was a longtime host on the old WNIB Classical radio station and he gives lectures at Ravinia and for the One Score program at the CSO.
By googling around I see that his class is being offered again in Ravenswood and starts on September 8. Here is the link that I found http://www.acmusic.org/appreciation.html
If you are interested or know anyone who would be, I highly recommend this class.
