In this seminar we will consider various kinds of writing -- from daily journalism and popular criticism to academic monographs and scholarly essays -- that concern the broad history of western music. Via regular writing assignments and group discussions of substance and style, students will have opportunities to improve the mechanics, tone, and range of their written prose. Special topic for spring 2014: the world of Richard Wagner. Required of senior majors; open to others by permission of the instructor.
Limited to MUS majors Limited to seniors
