MUS 360 - Seminar in Music History (3 Cr.)

TITLE AND DESCRIPTION CHANGE 2/14/2013. See “updates” on front page of online catalogue. (GEN. ED. #4 and #9)
A seminar focused on the research tools required of a music historian (musicologist) such as those encountered in biographical research, studies of stylistic developments, work with primary sources (both text and music), and studies that place musical practice in its historical and societal contexts. The seminar will primarily, but not exclusively, focus on topics from the Medieval and Renaissance periods. The course will end with an integrated, capstone project, which will combine historical research skills with a subject relevant to each student’s concentration in the music major. Prerequisites: MUS 115  and MUS 117 , or permission of the instructor. Spring semester. Offered 2010-11 and alternate years. Greenwood.
