MUS 45.05 Polyphony

Drawing from the world’s rich and diverse musical traditions, this course focuses on music and musical life in a particular geographic region or on a specific topic addressed from a cross-cultural and/or interdisciplinary perspective. In fall 2016, the focus is on polyphony--music composed or improvised by combining two or more distinct melodic lines. Examples will be drawn from contemporary and historical musical traditions of West Africa, Sardinia, Georgia, Tuva, and Western Europe. No prerequisite; no prior musical experience is required.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
