Week 8 Audio links

Hello All!

I saw that one of the links in the web notes to the Schumann songs was broken so I thought I'd post alternative spotify links to each of these: (if you don't have spotify already I highly recommend paying the $5 / month student fee. They have everything!)

https://open.spotify.com/track/4PvX2GHCZovcObFnqr3aaM - Soldier's March
https://open.spotify.com/track/1bBP2S1OuKBN43FTXAMeQ7 - Poor Orphan
https://open.spotify.com/track/0MSqSoNpz9866SmOlsfPWM - Wild Horseman

Also, if you enjoyed these, check out Schumann's piano piece, 'Carnaval'. Fun fact: Schumann encoded musical ciphers throughout the piece including references to friends of his, places he went, and even his own name all in musical pitches. I put a recording of it that I like in this spotify playlist (https://open.spotify.com/user/waziii/playlist/6QGtzVQvpukSGirFcgm8ZG). I may add more interesting pieces to this list that are tangential to what you're studying as the semester goes on; let me know if you like this format and we can play it by ear!
