A lecture series from The Great Courses that traces Western music history and connects musical styles to the historical periods that shaped them. It is taught by musicologist Robert Greenberg.

One commenter, recommending music history reading to someone new to music, says they enjoyed Greenberg's Great Courses series and names this title among his good ones.

    I had a good time listening to music history books. The Great Courses have some great ones by Dr. Robert Greenberg such as "Music as a Mirror of History".
