Rick Winston
Rick has taught film history at Burlington College, Community College of Vermont, Goddard College, and the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute.
Classical music has been used to enhance many of our favorite films. Some examples are Robert Schumann’s Piano Quintet in Ingmar Bergman’s “Fanny and Alexander”; Samuel Barber’s “Adagio for Strings” in Oliver Stone’s “Platoon;” Franz Schubert’s Piano Trio in Stanley Kubrick’s “Barry Lyndon;” and Benjamin Britten’s “A Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra” in Wes Anderson’s “Moonrise Kingdom.”
Join Rick Winston as he explores how music makes these films, and experience clips from these films and others.
