We use the poems of Emily Dickinson as a point of reference. We prepare our imaginations for engaging music by investigating the common ground of performing art and poetry. The content of the course consists entirely of art, in the broadest sense, that we ourselves invent and perform. We listen to no recordings. We read and perform Emily's words. We are a community of investigators. No previous formal training in music or art is required. Those with such training will find it irrelevant to the work.
Unless preregistered students attend the first class meeting or communicate directly with the instructor prior to the first class, they will be dropped from the class list. NOTE: Students must still submit a completed Drop/Add form to the Registrar's Office.
