This course focuses on a number of the most significant and controversial issues in the recent scholarship of early-mid 19th-century music. We will complement our discussion of scholarly debates with issues in music scholarship. This focus is intended to help students develop independent and critical judgment on these issues, to strengthen their research and academic writing skills, and to sustain these skills with the aid of their performance background.
We will begin by examining critical concepts and issues related to weekly topics and prepare for more in-depth discussion of these issues. Between week 4 and week 15, students will then take turns leading the discussion. Each student will be assigned one of the required readings, introducing, demonstrating, and evaluating the arguments included in the article in question. Each presenter will decide which repertory to focus on. He/she will also be in charge of selecting a recording of the relevant musical works and providing musical examples for the rest of the class. Presenters are strongly encouraged to demonstrate their points on their major instrument as an alternative to playing a recording. The required reading assignments are due at the beginning of each class meeting. Those not presenting in a given week will be expected to raise questions about, and to provide criticism of, the presenter’s viewpoints.
