The repertoire is intended to be mostly works that are not covered in 408E (Form & Analysis of Works Since World War II). It would be beneficial, but is not required, to have taken 408E or a course like it already. The emphasis on listening will reduce, but not eliminate the analysis component. The purpose of the course is to expand each student's familiarity with a large and diverse body of work, and to pursue the details of these works in papers and in some cases compositions (for composers, anyway). In addition to weekly assignments: students will be expected to produce a final written analysis project, or a combination of a short composition with a paper, and all students will make an in-class presentation of their final project.
