Transferable: CSU; UC General Education: Local GE L3; Cal-GETC Area 3A This course is a comprehensive, comparative survey of music from around the world (including the Americas, Europe, Central and West Asia, East and Southeast Asia, and Northern, West, and Sub-Saharan Africa). By participating in guided listening activities, students will explore the cultural contexts of musical examples and study music not only as an art but also as a human activity. Course themes include unpacking terms such as "traditional," "folk," and "modern" music; the intersections of music-making and ethnicity, race, gender, sexuality, and socio-economic class; and how musical expression is related to broader issues of ethnocentrism, racism, ageism, ableism, and sexism. Students will also study the disciplinary principles of ethnomusicology, including fieldwork and musical ethnography. No previous musical experience (e.g., reading western music notation) is required for this course.Usually HeldTue Thu 1:00pm–2:20pm
