Overview of class
Like the varied genres and forms of literature, the structure of musical compositions can be comprehended, but not limited, through theoretical and logistical methods. This course will review and expand upon concepts covered in GEN MUS 252 (Harmony). Students will learn traditional techniques of musical form and structure - such as binary form, invention, fugue, theme & variation, sonata, etc. - and examine their application to works primarily from the 18th and 19th centuries by composers including Bach, Mozart, and Schubert, among many others.
