MUS 1920 - Techniques and Improvisation II



Credits: 3

Prerequisite(s): MUS 1910

Description: This course builds directly on the previous semester’s iteration of this course, providing students an opportunity to further develop a solid foundation of facility on their chosen instrument through a logical progression of exercises and application. Students continue to experiment with basic techniques to further develop a creative approach to improvisation. The class situates technical vocabulary and improvisational skills within a variety of musical contexts across numerous genres. Along the way, students continue to develop a comprehensive method for practicing productively, keeping track of their own progress as they critically reflect on it. Group lectures will be enhanced with masterclasses and opportunities for one-on-one tutorial sessions.

Note: This course may be taken one semester per instrument area.
