MU 326 Popular Songwriting

This course is for students seeking to learn about popular music. The course will examine three aspects of music: the societal and cultural context that produces musical style, the technical construction of the music itself, and the resultant ideas that music expresses. To gain a deep understanding of these, the student will listen to an analyze historical musical examples and engage in 'hands-on' work, using software applications to compose and produce songs. While software is required, there is no lab fee.
