MMED-5010 Graduate Music History Review
This course is designed to provide an overview of the historical and stylistic developments of western musical traditions through an intensive study of its basic materials. Students are expected to consult appropriate musical scores and use standard music dictionaries and encyclopedias to clarify concepts and add to factual knowledge. The course gives factual information about composers and masterworks from each style period. Aural skills will be emphasized through listening and score study. This is a remedial course and as such does not count toward graduation but is required if deficiencies are identified by the Graduate Music History Placement Exam.
