Music appreciation for any music that you listen to, anytime, anywhere. No music background required.

Music is a big part of our daily lives. We hear it on radio, TV, shopping malls, or dedicated playlists that we have curated for different purposes. However, have you ever listenedto the music and wondered what is going on? Music is made up of many layers and most of the time, it serves to convey an idea or evoke certain responses in listeners.

In this interactive course, you will first understand the 8 elements of music that exist in most, if not all music around the world. You will learn about characteristics within each element that can easily be identified just by actively listening. We will be going on a little adventure with a very familiar tune and explore how the tune changes just by varying the musical elements.

After that, we will take a broader perspective and discuss musical representations (e.g., emotions, landscapes, cultures). We will also discuss how the 8 musical elements were varied in order to achieve these intended purposes.

What this course offers:

· PDF workbook for the entire course

· Active listening cheat sheet

· Listening examples from a wide range of music
(well-known classical music to modern music from musical theatre, film and pop music)
– Average of 15 examples for each section on musical elements
– Average of 10 listening examples for each lecture on musical representations

This is nota music theory course so simplified terms will be used for easy understanding.

This course is for:
·non-musicians who love music and want to learn more about how music works
·beginner-intermediate musicians who wish to understand music in a more holistic manner

I look forward to seeing you inside!
