MUS 109 - The History of Jazz (2 Cr.) (LER DIV)(GCR RPP)
Beyond examining biographical information about jazz musicians, this course traces the history of jazz from the points of view of geography, chronology, socio-economic factors, and historical theories. Students in this course discover that the development of jazz would have been unimaginable without the practice of slavery and institutionalized oppression in both North American and Latin America, and that these forces manifested as a unique cultural phenomenon which reflected the society of its time. Fall semester. Chappell.
