Magical Mystery Tour: The Invention of The Beatles
Need help registering?Part of:
This lecture analyses the ‘psychedelic era’ of the Beatles, from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to Let it Be, a period of staggering musical invention and experimentalism. We explore the mechanics behind the magic, untangling the layers of harmony, melody, lyrics, structure and technology, and how these all combine in ways both accessible and ground-breaking. This ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ pulls back the curtain on these timeless tracks, illuminating the craft of their transporting effects.
