This course is designed specifically for students in the B.A. in Music Education program. The course explores musical cultures throughout the world at the present time, including but not limited; Africa, the Americas, Asia, Near East, Europe, and the South Pacific. The course is designed to supplement the Music History sequence (MUSC 391,392,393) by encouraging appreciation for non-Western music and musical cultures that lie outside the Western canon, and will lead them to formulate principles and methodologies for applying their knowledge of world music to their teaching in the elementary and secondary schools.
