MUSIC 289 - Music Theory III: Harmonic Materials Beyond One Key
Credits: 4
A continuation of material studied in MUSIC 288 . Additional materials include using tones from outside a key, mixing materials from major and minor keys, more complex ways of changing keys, methods of obscuring a clear key identity, scales other than major and minor, and more complex chords. The focus is on those deviations for the Major-Minor key system that led to the musical environment at the beginning of the 20th century. The course includes an introduction to 20th-century materials, including exotic scales, complex chord structures, and parallelism. Students develop recognition and reproduction of these materials by sight and sound. Three days per week, plus one laboratory.
Prerequisite: MUSIC 288 or satisfactory score on diagnostic exam. Instructor permission required.
Distribution Requirements: HE, QR.
