Listening to Music
In this course, music's tonal shapes and structures will be identified. The course will cover how a composer selects, introduces, organizes, and manipulates them to produce a unique experience in moments of time. It will also examine varieties of sound, melodic coherence, rhythm, texture, and harmony and then explore the composer's means of organization, forms, function, and style. Listening to excerpts from the works of master composers will be an integral part of the course.
