MUSC 19904W - Music As Social Experience

Course Credit: 1
MUSIC AS SOCIAL EXPERIENCE  In this course, we survey music and its role in cultures and societies from the local to the global, familiar to the remote, and the present to the past. By considering how music can express values and ideas, sustain traditions, and help define community and individual identities, the course fosters a humanistic engagement with the musical lives of others. No prior training in music is necessary. [AH, C, W]
