About This Class

This course is designed to aid your personal and academic understandings of both writing and music. Through sustained inquiry into the rhetoric of musical analysis, you will practice advanced forms of academic writing. Guiding questions for the course include: how can we analyze the process of musical genre creation and classification, and how can we determine the guiding principles involved in both public and personal music tastes? Using supplemental readings on neuromusical research and multimedia resources (songs and music videos, a class blog), the course emphasizes analysis, criticism, and argument with support.

  1. I was wondering if i could be added to this course. I’ve been trying to join, but I haven’t received any invites. I don’t want to fail the quiz if someone could help.
