Music 111

Introduction to Music

An introduction to the appreciation of Western art music with an emphasis on hearing, recognizing, and relating the elements of music in an increasingly informed context. Topics will focus on major composers from the Middle Ages to modern times and will explore the range of meaning and value that their works have had and continue to have, by drawing connections between music and other humanities as well as the social and natural sciences. The course might include some jazz, popular music, and non-Western music. In addition to listening and reading, students will attend concerts and prepare written assignments. No previous musical background necessary. No prerequisite. Does not count toward a major in music. Annually. Fall. [*]

* Satisfies the general education requirement Learning Across the Disciplines: Arts and Humanities
