MUS 224 - Music Theory IV

Serves as an introduction to canonical works of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries in the Western European tradition. MUS 224 builds on the material presented in MUS 123, MUS 124 and MUS 223, focusing on the development of music analytical skills with special emphasis given to form. Two specific skills will be developed: 1. writing, in which you describe music in prose; and, 2. analytical, in which you will continue to develop fundamental principles of sonata, ternary and rondo forms as well as introducing students to first-movement concerto, fugue, Lieder, and post-tonal compositional strategies.
