Description

Released in October 1969, Abbey Road was the last album The Beatles recorded together and it remains a fan favorite.

Learn about the making of this masterpiece from Walter Everett, a professor of Music Theory at the U-M School of Music and a world-renowned Beatles scholar whose works include "The Beatles As Musicians: Revolver through the Anthology," which has been called, "the most important work to appear on the Beatles thus far," and "The Foundations of Rock: From Blue Suede Shoes to Suite: Judy Blue Eyes."

This event is cosponsored by the Michigan Theater and is presented in conjunction with a concert by The Fab Faux, who will perform Abbey Road in its entirety, as well as a mixed set of other late-era Beatles classics, on Sat. April 22 at the Michigan Theater.
