MUS* 168: Music Ear Training II

1 Credits
Ear Training II is a continuation of Ear Training I. As the aural component of Music Theory II, students are to co-register with Music Theory II (MUS* 116). This course uses Kodály materials. All Intervals (except the tritone), scales (major, natural and harmonic minor), and triads (Mmd) in all inversions are sung and identified, with an introduction of augmented triads. Practice singing in two and three parts in treble and bass clefs is included as well as “Sing and Play.” This course also includes singing and dictation of one-part and two-parts melodies in major and minor (natural and harmonic). Sight-singing in duple compound meter, keyboard harmony and simple chord progressions are introduced (aural identification of diatonic harmonic functions).
