Music professor Dr. Gilad Cohen<\/strong> will launch a Pink Floyd weekly lecture series March 3.<\/p>\n

“The Floydian Style” will be an 8-part series presented live on Zoom. It’ll focus on the inventive ways lyrics, composition, arrangement, production, performance, and visuals have joined together to make Floyd one of the most successful bands of all time.<\/p>\n

Cohen will present the first 80-minute session, “Pop and Psychedelia,” free on March 3, at 6:15 p.m. EST. Additional sessions will be $15 each, or $12 for students. The entire series is available for purchase in advance for $90, or $75 for students.<\/p>\n

Video recordings of the sessions will also be available for two months. Users can buy the series any time, and receive recordings of the sessions they might have missed.<\/p>\n

“The format is attractive since it allows free discussion,” Cohen tells us, “with participants asking questions throughout and suggesting songs and issues for discussion.”<\/p>\n

Cohen is an associate professor of music performance and theory at Ramapo College of New Jersey where he teaches a number of courses, including “Shine On: The Music of Pink Floyd.” In 2014 he co-produced “Pink Floyd: Sound, Sight and Structure,” an academic conference held at Princeton where he was studying.<\/p>\n
