MU119 Music that Changed the World

4 cr. credit(s)
This course serves as an anchor to the First Year Experience by welcoming you into the Saint Mary’s University community and providing an opportunity for the development of academic skills in the discipline of music.  Inquiry into the connections between music and society, both in contemporary America and in a variety of historical contexts will allow you to develop the academic habits and way of thinking to take forward into any Interdisciplinary Minor of your choice.  This course incorporates the common themes of Place, Purpose, and Well-Being by examining the connections between music and the social and cultural environment it was created in, the influence of place on the creative processes involved in music, and how music provides purpose not only for the composer, but also performers and audience.
