Music Appreciation
According to Webster’s Dictionary, Appreciation in regards to the arts has to do with a sensitive awareness. In music appreciation, all students will be educated in the basic fundamentals of music and how to be aware of them in the music of today’s (and yesterday’s) world. Students do not need to have a musical background in order to succeed in class, but all students must have a general interest in the topic and a desire to learn. The course will survey basic elements of music, instruments & ensembles, music history, Jazz, Broadway, popular music, and music business.
