This unit encourages students to think critically and creatively about listening, understanding and performing music. The aim of the unit is to cultivate an advanced analytical and conceptual foundation for improving practical, aesthetic and critical awareness. This broad ranging approach helps to develop better performance skills by improving melodic and rhythmic competency, aural awareness and theoretical understanding. Assessment for the unit is based on creative (performance and/or composition) projects, written assignments and aural tasks. -- Course Website
