MUSI 490 - Musical Communication in Context

Credits: 3 (NR)
Explains nature of musical communication in a variety of contexts, and combines knowledge gained in Mason Core courses with knowledge and skills specific to the major to serve as a capstone course synthesizing both areas. How does music itself communicate, and how do musicians communicate about it with each other and with the world around them? Students address these through essays in the style of a journal or portfolio, substantial paper, and oral presentation of paper before faculty and student panel.

Fulfills Mason Core requirement in synthesis.

Prerequisite(s): Must be in senior year of the B.A. program in Music and have completed all other Mason Core requirements.
