The written component of the course (MUSC 101) focuses on the fundamentals of music theory, beginning with aspects of notation, pitch, scale, intervals, chords, beat, rhythm and meter, and proceeding with the first steps in the study of melody, counterpoint, harmony, and texture. The aural-oral component (MUSC 111) focuses on the development of the musical ear and inner hearing by means of various practices including singing, sight singing and rhythmic reading. A special emphasis is placed on dictation of intervals, triads, seventh chords, diatonic melodies and rhythmic patterns.

2.00 Credits
The course continues work begun in MUSC 101 and MUSC111. The written component of the course (MUSC 102) opens with a brief review of triads, seventh chords and the basic principles of part writing, and proceeds with the exploration of various scale degrees and different harmonic functions within a diatonic context. In addition to the study of harmony and voice-leading, this unit introduces concepts of musical structure and form. The aural-oral component (MUSC 112) expends the practices introduced in MUSC 111 to include aural comprehension of tonal relations on different levels of musical structure and harmonic progressions within a diatonic context. Prerequisite: successful completion of both MUSC 101 and MUSC 111.

This course continues the Musicianship sequence begun in the first year of study. The written component of the course (MUSC 201) opens with a brief review of diatonic harmony and then follows with a study of chromatic harmony, including secondary dominants, tonicizations, modulations, modal mixture, and other chromatic chords. Form, rhythm, and additional compositional parameters will also be considered through an in-depth look at music literature demonstrating the various concepts. The aural-oral component (MUSC 211) expands the ear training skills of the first year of Musicianship to include chromaticism and more complex rhythmic units. Prerequisite: successful completion of both MUSC 102 and MUSC 112.

2.00 Credits
Both the written (MUSC 202) and aural-oral (MUSC 212) sections of Musicianship IV focus on jazz and music of the 20th and 21st centuries. The unit of jazz covers improvisation techniques, extended tertian harmonies, modes and scales, jazz bass line construction, and typical jazz voicing. The course will then explore various 20th-century techniques, including set theory, dodecaphony, polytonality, integral serialism, aleatoricism and minimalism, considering formal rhythmic, melodic, harmonic, textural and philosophical aspects. Prerequisite: successful completion of both MUSC 201 and MUSC 211.
