Practicing Ethnomusicology
MUSC 507 SP

The nature of the skills and approaches associated with the field known as ethnomusicology. Limitations of traditional methodology and sources are stressed. Students build up skills in observation, field methods (interviewing, taping, etc.), preliminary introduction to hardware, transcription, analysis, and the writing up of research findings in the form of reviews and a final research paper delivered as an oral "convention" paper.
