MUSC 121 - Ear Training I

Institution:

Lincoln Memorial University

Subject:

Description:

Music 111 is the first course in a two semester sequence. The course begins with a quick overview of fundamental musical materials: scales, key signatures, intervals, chords, and rhythmic concepts. We then start work on the three other central topics of the curriculum. The topics are voice leading, harmony, and an introduction to ear-training. Understanding them will lead you to an understanding of the basic structure of traditional Western tonal art music of the "Common-Practice Period" (ca. 1680-1900), an understanding that you can put to work in all musical activities, listening, performing, and creating. In this first semester we use relatively simple contexts to explore the basics of each of the four main topics. Fall
