    The descriptions and topics change from semester-to-semester, as well as from instructor-to-instructor. Prerequisite: varies with the topic offered. MUSI 390 MUSIC PUBLISHING. In the music business, publishing is the quiet moneymaker. This course will cover the hows and whys of publishing music: the history, compositions as intellectual property, copyright, exploiting titles through film, television and other media, the role performing rights organizations, how publishers stand to profit in the new music business environment and much more. MUSI 390 IMPROVISATION IN MUSIC. What is improvisation Spontaneous creativity comes to mind, communicating, taking risks, going to unknown territories, being in the moment, transcending language and culture. Virtually all musical styles and traditions include elements of improvisation, some extremely sophisticated. In jazz, improvisation became central to the art. With the newer forms it demanded an even more radical freedom of intense, spontaneous communication which in turn inspired punk and early rap. However, in the current mainstream culture (classical, pop, rock, even commercial jazz) improvisation is often discouraged, and many musicians are uncomfortable with it. To encourage and broaden artistic expression, this course will approach improvisation from a wide range of perspectives, both in theory and practice. Instrumentalists, singers and other performers, actors, dancers from all styles are welcome. Prior experience in music or improvisation is not necessary, just curiosity and the willingness to experiment. MUSI 390 PERFORMANCE PRACTICE IN CHAMBER MUSIC. This course offers instrumentalists and singers the opportunity to research and perform chamber works within the classical tradition. Students will focus on historical style and authentic performance practices of chosen works from the solo, duet, trio, and quartet repertoire. Musical questions inherent to a given work will be explored through ongoing rehearsal and study. Students will regularly present their works in progress to the class for discussion. The course will culminate in a public performance of all prepared works. Prerequisites: permission of instructor; students must possess strong music reading skills and audition for entry into the class. 0.000 TO 4.000 Credit Hours 0.000 TO 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture, Studio Contemporary Arts College Music Department

    In her book, MUSIC IN EVERYDAY LIFE (2000), the British sociologist of music, Tia DeNora, notes that "music serves as a kind of template against which feeling, perception, representation, and social situation are created and sustained," later calling it "a building material of self-identity" and "the cultural material par excellence of emotion and the personal." This course examines some of the many ways that music acts within individual, social and cultural life as a powerful part of the search for, and construction of, identity and meaning. In the process we explore a wide range of music; use different forms of inquiry, observation, documentation, ethnography, analysis, interpretation, response; and draw particularly upon the backgrounds and experiences of the members of the class. 0.000 TO 4.000 Credit Hours 0.000 TO 4.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture Contemporary Arts College Music Department Course Attributes: CA-School Core-400 Level
