MUS 715 - Introduction to Ethnomusicology Graduate Seminar (3 units)
Ethnomusicology, or “the study of music in its social and cultural contexts,” constitutes a broad, interdisciplinary field of engagement with “music,” “sound,” and “culture.” Historically bound to the study of “non-Western” or “World” musics, ethnomusicology emerged as a discipline concerned with human diversity and, accordingly, difference. In this seminar, we journey into the rich possibilities ethnomusicology offers for open encounter, exchange, and exploring human diversity.
