Information
Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung
Though lectures, assigned readings, class discussion and written and oral assignments, this course will examine and critically assess musicological approaches to popular music. The focus of the course will be on popular songs as sonic objects, and will pose the questions why and how do we analyse these objects. The course begins with a philosophical investigation of popular music: What is it? What does it do? Why should we care? The remained of the course will be focused on the various musical parameters of pop songs (melody, harmony, rhythm, form) and on the relationship between words and music. Students will be introduced to rudimentary concepts from forensic musicology--the application of musicology to legal issues surrounding music.
Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel
Students will be assessed on the basis of class participation, two short written assignments, a group presentation, and a final paper. There will be no exams in this course.
