FYSP 059 - Perspectives on Jazz: Its Meanings Across Time and Place Semester Offered: First Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 4HU, WINT
In exploring the diverse meanings jazz has accrued over time, this course will be driven by one question: what has jazz meant to various communities at specific points in its history? We will explore jazz as history, place, technology, visual art, language, race and gender, sound, autobiography, improvisation, and social ethic. We will develop writing and listening skills while exploring the jazz collections of the Conservatory Library and the AMAM. No formal musical training is required.
