MUSC& 143 - Music Theory III

Credits: 5
The study of music logic, music theory, is intended to complement the musical intuition most vocalists and instrumentalists already have. Music is a complex and highly organized art, whether it is a Mozart concerto or a jack improvisation. While providing a rational knowledge of music through the study of basic musical concepts and terminology, including analysis, composition, ear-training and sight singing, a study of music theory interacts with the musician’s intuition, bringing a deeper understanding and appreciation of music. All students will learn to apply their knowledge to the keyboard in a basic though useful way.
