Programm 5

In the 5th programme in the series “about Music” we do some more exploration into Intensity, and how this creates emotion in music. Emotional intensity in music refers to the degree of emotional expressiveness or power that a piece of music or performance conveys to the listener. It can be described as the feeling that is communicated through the music. And we indulge ourselves in the complete performance of Rachmaninov’s second piano concerto. Don’t’ miss this stunning performance! Music links and Questions for Programme 5: about Music: Intensity
