MUSC 104 Musicianship II 2 credits
Continuation of Musicianship I, with an emphasis on singing in solfège (moveable do, do-based minor) and dictation skills. Building on content from MUSC 103, we will explore more advanced solfège techniques, including chromaticism and modulation. Dictation exercises will focus on longer excerpts structured around standard four- and eight-measure schemas, as well as harmonic progressions and two-voice excerpts.
Recommended Preparation: MUSC 103 (Musicianship I) or an appropriate score on the Music Theory Placement exams on the music department website. Students with questions about placement are strongly encouraged to discuss with the instructor.

Student work includes building a musical instrument, programming a drum machine, writing computer code to create harmonies and timbres, and an extended music analysis project using empirical methods.
