Deconstructing the Beatles

The Beatles are widely considered the most popular band of all time, with unparalleled sales and cultural impact. Generations have come to love their music, and their message.

AVAILABLE ON PASSPORT FEBRUARY 28 

PREMIERING TUESDAY, MARCH 4-6 AT 10 PM

For over 20 years, musicologist Scott Freiman has been “deconstructing” the band’s music, first through sold-out live presentations across the country, then through a series of 11 theatrically-released feature documentaries, and now through the music special, DECONSTRUCTING THE BEATLES

Scott’s multimedia presentations transport his audiences into the studio, allowing fans to experience the evolution of groundbreaking albums and songs. 

The special is based on three popular topics, which trace key moments in the band’s career:

  • The Beatles Come to America - The story of how The Beatles went from Liverpool to the Ed Sullivan Show
  • Deconstructing Rubber Soul - The race against the clock to produce 1965’s Rubber Soul
  • Deconstructing “Strawberry Fields Forever” - A look at the origins and recording of this Beatles’ masterpiece 

You can watch DECONSTRUCTING THE BEATLES on PBS Passport beginning Friday, February 28, or on Alabama Public Television March 4-6 at 10 PM.
