MUS-143 Aural Skills I
Aural skills I - IV is a regimen of skills classes designed to increase the student's aural comprehension and musicianship skills. The courses are closely correlated to the music theory sequence (
MUS-201,
MUS-202,
MUS-241,
MUS-242) and will help expand the student's intervallic recognition and ability to recognize rhythmic, melodic and harmonic structures and patterns in music they hear, and write these down (dictation). The courses will also introduce and expand on solfege (sight singing) and basic conducting techniques.
