MUSI 142 Music Theory II
This class is a continuation of work completed in Music Theory I. It includes more advanced part writing and analysis, harmonization of melodies, chord inversions, diatonic seventh chords, non-chord tones, phrase structure, small-scale formal structures, and individual and group projects that focus on various analytical, arranging, and compositional activities. Instruction will be integrated with music technologies. This will serve: (1) as a means to complement and enhance student learning about music theory, and (2) as an introduction to the extraordinarily wide range of technological applications to composition, improvisation, and music education in general. This is the continuation of a foundational block of courses designed to provide students a sufficient knowledge base in theory and aural skills. Offered every spring semester.
