Description

Studies in Music Analysis

The aim of this course is to develop an understanding of the methods and techniques of analysis in the works of various composers and to examine in detail a work by applying one or more of these methods.  The main emphasis of the course is on musical compositions of the twentieth/twenty-first century.

The first part of the course is taught as a class and includes discussion of texts and articles, ready by students prior to the lecture, and preparation for the analysis assignments.  The principal, second part of the course is taught through individual tutorials and concerns the individual, independent analysis of the chosen works.
