Description

The course will pursue two closely intertwined goals. The first one is to develop a critical and historical understanding of the musical life of 15th and 16th centuries in Europe, in the context of the political, religious, and social institutions and values of the time. This part of the class is conceived as a survey of the major musical genres and forms of the “Renaissance.” At the same time, the course is designed to be an open forum to reflect on the role and educational value of European music of the distant past in our present time. Why studying this music today, beyond the aural pleasure it may give us? How, and to what extent, can it contribute to solving pressing problems of justice and equality that we currently face? Basic issues in performance practice will be important components of the course.

Intended Audience:

Graduate students elect MUSICOL 578.
