MUSI 321 American Music

Credit 3
The broad range of musical influences on Americans since the 16th Century is a strong reflection of our ever-broadening and diverse cultural influences. This course seeks to delineate the specific cultural influences from outside the continent, and to show how those influences evolved into a unique American music. The course will also familiarize students with the origins and evolutions of the “melting-pot” that is America through the examination of its music and the music of the cultures that make up that “melting-pot.” Through extensive listening examples, readings, and lectures, the students will be guided through the panorama of America’s musical landscape. Prerequisite(s): MUSI 109; MUSI 103; junior standing.
