    Description
    This course is an introduction to the fundamentals of music. Students will learn basic music terminology and develop skills in music notation, including reading treble and bass clefs, the staff, notes, rhythms, intervals, scales, chords, keys, and key signatures. Musical literacy and creativity will be reinforced by aural and rhythmic drills, the use of music software, and short, creative assignments. Works from classical and commercial music will be used for demonstration purposes. Recommended for students with little or no music experience.
