MUSC 1181 Ear Training 1
For those students pursuing a career in music, this begins the undergraduate training in fundamental aural skills. As the foundation of musicianship, aural training provides the necessary skills for the professional musician and any student that desires improvement. In this first of a 4-semester sequence, students will focus on reading at sight and aural recognition of sound patterns through interval and rhythm reading; keyboard; dictation; and sight singing. This course is intended for music majors and minors, or the prepared student who desires a rigorous aural training. Typically, these could be students who have studied music through high school or community programs.
