What a neat way to learn about music!

The San Francisco Symphony and Music Director Michael Tilson Thomas have created this site that tells you more than you probably ever wanted to know about Beethoven’s third symphony, the Sinfonia Eroica, but presents it in an incredibly interesting and entertaining manner. I would love to see more sites like this one!

This reminds me a little bit of the show Dogfights on the History Channel, which combines first-hand accounts of famous air battles with new computer animation, bringing history to life in a unique and exciting way.

I really appreciate the use of new technology to illuminate “old” information and preserve its value and accessibility to us today.
