SUMMARY:Disco Inferno!\, Part II
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: December 11\, 16\, & 18\, 2025 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \nBy the late 1970s\, disco dominated the airwaves and conquered film\, television\, advertising\, and fashion. Its ubiquity\, however\, led to an inevitable backlash in the form of Chicago’s infamous “Disco Demolition Night” event at Comiskey Park.  Did that signal the end of the genre?  Hardly—it merely changed labels\, transforming its sound and becoming “House” or “Electronic Dance Music (EDM).”  In the present day\, artists such as Dua Lipa\, Beyoncé\, and Sabrina Carpenter have incorporated the sound into their own music. \n\n\nPart two of Disco Inferno continues the journey through the history of disco\, moving from the late 1970s peak into House music and through the present day.  How did disco evolve through the 1970s?  How did the genre alter music and popular culture?  Why has the music endured?  All of these questions will be explored through multimedia presentations and class discussions.  Students will learn about the peak of disco and its longevity\, key artists\, and how the genre evolved into House and EDM.
