This course is designed to give a thorough grounding in the basic compositional techniques of tonal harmony, part-writing (counterpoint), and formal structures of the "common practice" era in Western art music. LECTURES will introduce concepts on a theoretical level and provide guidance of ways in which they can be meaningfully applied to actual music. EAR-TRAINING SECTIONS, led by a TA, will focus on the development of aural and keyboard skills. Students are required to attend one hour-long ear-training session per week on Friday between 11:00am and 1:00pm.
