According to Artistdirect.com, Berkleemusic.com, the online school of Boston's renowned Berklee College of Music, is launching Rock History, an online course that chronicles the evolution of one of the greatest periods of music. Rock History takes an-depth look at the highs and lows of rock over the past 60 years; the key heroes and villains, the movers and shakers from the studio and the concert stage, and a behind-the-scenes look at the managers, industry executives, promoters, and cultural trends that shaped it. The course launches April 2nd.
Berkleemusic has tapped journalist Steve Morse to author and teach Rock History. Morse brings a lifetime of real-world experience to the material.
Throughout the course, students will view exclusive, never-before-seen Berkleemusic video interviews with rock luminaries including Joe Perry of AEROSMITH and producer Jack Douglas (who has worked with Aerosmith, PATTI SMITH and JOHN LENNON).
Berkleemusic has also partnered with Wolfgang's Vault to provide additional rare audio, video, and other forms of historical rock media presented in an educational context for the very first time.
"I have known Steve Morse for over 20 years," concludes Aerosmith's Joe Perry. "Steve is a musicologist and his love of music makes him a very enthusiastic teacher. Steve has an undying love of music and a proven ability to be one of music's finest critics and writers.''
