Performance, Analysis, History

1 Course Unit

Participation in the course may require an audition, see section details. This course must be taken for a letter grade (pass/fail option may not be utilized for this course). This weekly seminar will explore music from the past and present through class discussions of performance, historical or contemporary context, and analytical aspects of the music led by a professor and/or performer. One example of a class in this number will be an indepth study of chamber music repertoire led by the Daedalus Quartet. Students will prepare for a final performance at the end of the semester as well as a paper/presentation. MUSC 3660 may be taken multiple times, but can only count once as a Music major elective, and no more than twice toward the major performance requirement. Please note that a course that counts as an elective may not also count toward the performance requirement. Spring 1 Course Unit
