MUSIC CS 103, Section 1 EC # 35642
FAVORITE THINGS

Imitation may be the sincerest form of flattery, but this course will go one step further. FIRST, students will analyze and present their favorite works, whether acoustic or electronic; tonal or atonal or serial; chamber or orchestral. THEN, students will write works of their own, based on a single, well-defined element from the works they admire. The goal here is not to write "in the style of" but to use the works analyzed as a source of inspiration.

While compositions for piano are always a viable option, students will be encouraged to write longer works (2-5 minutes) for small chamber ensembles (2-4 players), rather than "exercises."
