We had some fun with the idea of mavericks in classical music at our opening class, Sept. 24. Did you know the word "maverick" comes from the name of an actual person?

Next class is all about choral music and the beauty of voices singing together, Oct. 29. Here are some of the "revolutionary" pieces we heard: Chopin Etude Op. 10, No. 1, Garrick Ohlsson, piano: Claude Debussy's "Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun," Danish Radio Orchestra: George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue," Gershwin, piano: Steve Reich's "Music for 18 Musicians," Eighth Blackbird:
