This course is conceived as an examination of restructural
musics from the fifties/sixties time cycle and the role of
three major artists in helping to influence and set the
aesthetic agenda (and conceptual focus) of post-modern music
evolution after the second World War. The course will use
each artist as both a study in itself as well as a point of
definition that relates to the broader subject of improvised
music and related artists (and/or 'musics'). There will be
listening assignments every class -- four papers will also
be required, one research paper and two listening
'recognition' tests.
MAJOR READINGS
MILES (the autobiography) by Quincy Troupe
