As musicians ourselves and passionate listeners, many of us acknowledge a love for music and an appreciation of its power to move us emotionally. But what does it mean to really know a piece of music? This course will examine ways of knowing and understanding the art of music, in this case, music created or interpreted by women. We will consider the genesis and creation of a work, the historical/political climate in which it was created, the personal story of the composer or personal artist at the center of the work, the reception of the work and its influence on society; all facets of a critical understanding at the center of an informed reading or performance. In this way, the course will examine the contributions women have made to the field of human knowledge and art by composing and performing music. This course will also serve as a Critical Thinking Seminar. As such, we will focus on sharpening skills in interpretation, analysis, evaluation, inference and explanation. An introduction to the problem of searching out and utilizing appropriate resource materials will be a further component of the course. Though there will be a component of classroom performance, no previous experience or training is necessary.

This will be a project-based class in which students create five pieces using a different musical basis for each one: motives, structure, chords, process, and gestures. A limited number of very clear musical models will be studied for each project, and appropriate musical skills will be developed as needed in order to imagine, notate, and perform each project. Students will gain basic functionality in traditional, digital, and pictorial notation, a working knowledge of Finale and GarageBand software, skills in music performance, and experience articulating and writing about their musical intentions and results. The class can accommodate students with little or no background in music as well as more experienced students and music majors. The skills learned will be particularly useful to those interested in sound design in theatre, arts collaborators, dancers, teachers, music composers, and those who would like to understand music from the vantage point of the creator. The course counts toward the Music Minor.

Theory 1 works efficiently through the fundamental organizational principles of music (pitch, rhythm, meter, staves and clefs, intervals, major and minor scales, and chords) and lays the groundwork for understanding how these elements work together in a diatonic framework, that is, music that fits within a single key signature. Theory 1 is required for the music major and minor.

Aural listening and singing skills related to Patterns in Music 1 concepts will be developed. To be taken concurrently with Mus 181.

Patterns in Music 2 delves deeper into the underlying principles of diatonic music with regard to harmonic progression and function and voice leading connections between chords, then adds in the most basic elements of chromaticism, that is, notes that are outside the key signature: secondary functions, diatonic modulation, and mode mixture. The understanding of this much chromaticism then allows for the study of simple binary and ternary forms. Theory 2 is required for the music major.

Aural listening and singing skills related to Patterns in Music 2 concepts will be developed. To be taken concurrently with Mus 182. Corequisite: MUS 182.

Survey and study of forms and styles of music literature from early music to the 21st century; listening is emphasized.

This course is an introduction to popular music history, covering the period between 1930 and 2000. We will study rock as a reflection of its social context and as a cultural force that has an impact on society. Roughly half of our class time will deal with popular music’s socio-political context, the historical developments of technology and the music business, and the stylistic features of the music itself. For the other half we will be using popular music as a window into important issues such as gender, sexuality, race, and identity.

The term Popular Music in Latin-America describes several dozen different musical styles originated or related to Latin America, the Caribbean and the Latino Population in the US. This course is an introduction to Latin American popular music through a survey that will provide a broad and comprehensive panorama on these styles. We will talk about the main composers and performers, geographical location, history as well as cultural and sociopolitical backgrounds of each style. In addition to that we will address lyrics and musical characteristics such as instrumentation and rhythmic patterns of selected musical examples to shape our understanding of the music. Students from all disciplines may take the course. No prior knowledge of music, Spanish or Portuguese is required.

Specific topics include waves and vibrations, perception and measurement of sound, and the acoustics of musical instruments, speech and singing. The course will provide the scientific foundation for more specialized courses such as speech & hearing and music theory, but it will also have interdisciplinary components, and students will be guided to make connections to their own areas of specialty and interest.

Introduction to original composition. All work will be completed in class under careful supervision of the instructor and with frequent readings by class members. Each of three to four projects focuses on aspects of music other than pitch organization: speaking piece, unpitched percussion piece, graphic notation/improvisation piece. Finale computer notation is introduced in the first project and used extensively throughout the course. Most compositions will be performed on department recitals. Graded S/U. Prerequisite: MUS 181.

A survey of art music in Western civilization from the Greeks through the Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque periods. Prerequisite: MUS 182 or permission of instructor.

Patterns in Music 3 will foster proficiency in a wider array of chromaticism, including chromatic modulation, chromatic chords with predominant functions, and larger forms such as sonata, rondo, composite ternary, and fugue. In keeping with 20th century musical developments, Theory 3 will then consider post-chromaticism in new approaches to pitch collections, chord structures, rhythm and meter, and voice leading connections, as well as ways in which these impacted form in the 20th century. Two analytical projects will serve as a capstone for the entire 3-semester theory sequence: serial/numerical approaches and contemporary popular music. Theory 3 is required for the music major. Prerequisite: MUS 182.

Aural listening and singing skills related to Patterns in Music 2 concepts will be further developed. Selected Patterns in Music 3 concepts will be added. Corequisite: MUS 281.

Theory IV develops analytical and compositional skills appropriate for understanding late 19th century music, in which tonality is stretched and broken down, and subsequent “post-tonal” developments in the 20th and 21st century. Guided practice in analysis applications to music from a variety of musical periods will serve to synthesize and focus skills and concepts learned throughout the theory sequence, and will develop the students’ ability to formulate and solve problems of analysis that arise in music not previously encountered.

Aural skills related to issues in Theory IV: performance and hearing exercises that incorporate pitch and rhythmic material from the 20th century, and the consolidation of tonal hearing. Specific assignments in Practica Musica (software) will be made on a weekly basis. Corequisite: MUS 282.
