Music History III: Seminar

Catalog description

An extension of the 2 semester survey (MUSC 210, 211), this course aims to deepen the study of music history by using a series of mostly 20th century operas as a lens through which to address topics that have become central to the study of music during the past few decades, such as high vs. low art, gender and sexuality, emotion, and the canon. The seminar format emphasizes student contributions in the form of discussion of prepared readings, presentations and written work.
