African American Music: A History of Race and National 1900-1945 3 credit hours NOTE: This section also meets with AFRO 199, Section D We live in a world of racially- and gender-coded music: Country, Hard Rock, Soul, Funk and Hip Hop, Bluegrass and Blues, Folk and Jazz. Popular music is attached to images�often stereotyped images�of men and women, young and old, black, white and latino/a in a process that both serves and helps create the identities of musicians and fans and the needs of the culture industry. This musical racialization and gendering is extensive enough and powerful enough to efface its own history, but, indeed, emerged out of a particular historical context and has changed over time. Drawing on a wealth of recent scholarship dealing with the first few decades of the music recording industry in America, 1900-1945, this course will look at the ways music played a fundamental role in shaping changing ideas about race and gender in the 20th century. We will also consider how connections between music, race and gender were important in emerging understandings of the American nation in the period up to the end of World War II. Students will be asked to read current scholarly books and articles, listen to historical popular music recordings, complete a number of writing assignments and participate extensively in integrative class discussions. Though the course will require careful listening and critical consideration of music no prior musical study is necessary. First Year Discovery Program Course. Registration restricted to freshmen. Students should enroll in only one Discovery course.

"Music, Science, and Technology" 2 credit hours Sever Tipei, Professor http://ems.music.uiuc.edu/people/tipei/index.html An introduction for non-music majors to the use of computer technology in music and to the way scientific ideas and mathematical tools are applied in the creation of new musical compositions. The course offers an insight in the field of Computer Music by giving students the opportunity to work hands on in a major Computer Music laboratory and shows ways in which the development of technology is facilitating the process of globalization. Both the negative and the positive impacts of globalization are discussed, keeping in mind that globalization does not necessarily lead to the loss of originality and creativity, or to the loss of regional identity.

"Heart, body, and soul! - Contemporary Vocal Styles and Techniques" Barrington Coleman, Associate Professor 3 HOURS CREDIT http://www.music.uiuc.edu/facultyBio.php?id=21 Students may become their own 'American Idol' through the study of contemporary vocal styles, improvisatory techniques, an in-depth survey of cultural and historical influences on diverse genre, and performance experiences through such art forms as Negro Spirituals, Jazz, Pop, and Gospel music. As this series establishes a platform for students to search for effective methods of interpretation in current and past events, we will utilize songs of the Civil War period and the Freedom songs from the Age of Lincoln up to the groundbreaking occurrences of the 20th century, such as the Civil Rights era and the transformation of our current governmental administration. Through our investigation of this prose and poetry, students will determine how the diversity of our American culture is expressed with improvisatory music. First Year Discovery Program Course.

Students will be introduced to concepts that examine the psychological, emotional, and metaphysical understanding of singing. Together we will build a performance open to the public.
