CMUS 131 - Advanced Music Theory

FC ARHU

4 credits
This course is designed for non-music majors who are already comfortable or fluent with notation and rudiments, and who want a more intensive exploration of music theory beyond the level of CMUS 130. The class will focus on the conventions of Western classical and vernacular music, and is designed to advanced students’ notational, aural, and analytical fluency. Topics studied include harmony, melody, rhythm, texture, and a variety of forms (variation, binary, song, and others).
Prerequisites & Notes: CMUS 130 or permission of the instructor.
