MUS 2842 - Session Styles II



Credits: 2

Prerequisite(s): MUS 1010, MUS 1110, MUS 1120, MUS 2840

Description: Building on the skills and knowledge gained in MUS 2840: Sessions Styles I, this course focuses on the more advanced skills necessary to be a successful working musician in studio and live sessions. Particular emphasis will be placed on reading and interpreting song charts in a diverse range of contemporary and iconic musical styles in the popular idiom. Students listen to and analyze a more complex range of recordings to assess their stylistic sonic qualities. Instructors provide historical and cultural context for each style as well as further performance training and guidance in developing more nuanced critical listening skills. Group sessions are discipline-specific, and are supported by one-on-one tutorials and master classes.
