for Shana Bet Men

 Post Pesach Program: April 17 - May 24, 2023

The Post Pesach Program is a unique opportunity for returning Shana Bet students to get a taste of everything Yeshiva University has to offer. The Post Pesach program enables students to get a jump start on their college experience by allowing them to take up to six college credits over six weeks. A wide variety of exceptional classes are available in both Yeshiva College and the Sy Syms School of Business. Taught by exciting and invigorating professors, these classes will help students satisfy core requirements for either program. Students will have the opportunity to build life long connections with our world class Rabbeim as well. As part of the program, small and individualized academic advising sessions will be provided to enable to students to properly register for the following Fall 2023 semester.

The Post Pesach Program will be in person.  There will be no virtual option for the program.

This exploratory course in music philosophy predominantly concerns the 19th century-an era of significant revolutions in society, and thus in music and the arts-and early modernism. By exploring this era's remarkable music, philosophy, and art, we will develop critical appreciation, reading, and reasoning skills. We will also learn how this era's major interrelated disciplines, the so-called sister arts (music, theater, ballet, literature, poetry, visual art, etc.), built the foundations for 20th century artistic thought and practice, an area of study you may pursue further in Music and the World Wars (COWC/MUS 1013), a course offered by the music department.
