Course Catalog Description
Styles of the Late Renaissance through the Classical Period: Late Renaissance Polyphony, 18th Century Counterpoint, Fugue, Variation Technique, Sonata and Rondo Forms, and Harmony. Composition projects will be included. Prerequisite: MUSC 1001 with a grade of C or better.

Course Objectives
The objectives of this course are: 1) to deepen the student's understanding of the materials of Western music as employed in the polyphonic styles of the late Renaissance and Baroque eras (including the fugue) and the homophonic styles of Classical period; 2) to further acquaint the student with the elements of harmony as demonstrated in the music of those periods; and 3) to introduce the student to variation technique and the sonata and rondo forms. Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to analyze music from the repertoire and will be able to express himself/herself creatively through the composing of music in some of those styles.

Program Learning Goals or Outcomes
Department Learning Goal 2: Through clear use of the written word, the student will be able to deconstruct music into its fundamental elements, such as form, rhythm, tonal centers, etc. This could also point to the pursuit of research, both scholarly and creative, as well as experimentation to expand the current knowledge base of the discipline.
Bachelor of Arts Outcome 2: The candidate can identify and discuss music from a wide selection of repertoire, based on the principal eras, genres, and cultural sources.
Bachelor of Arts Outcome 6: The candidate can identify the core components of music, such as rhythm, melody, timbre, form, etc.

Statement on Credit Hour Definition/expectation for student work
For each credit hour of classroom or direct faculty instruction, students are expected to engage in two hours of out-of-class course-related work (readings, homework, studying, project preparation, etc.). A four credit hour course requires eight hours per week of out-of-class work.
