MUSC 1045 - Aural Theory II

Credits: 1
The second semester of a four-semester series on the fundamentals of ear training, sight-singing, and dictation skills. Students demonstrate an understanding of notation, intervals, major and minor scales, key signatures, basic rhythm (including dotted rhythms and syncopation), and based melodic sequences (diatonic melodies including larger leaps). Students apply appropriate principles of transforming sound into notation through the writing of melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic examples from dictation, and the transformation of notation into sound with sight-singing with solfege. This course is offered in the spring.

Prerequisite: Completion of MUSC 1035.
