MHST 530H Topics in the 19th Century: Music & Romanticism
This course is designed to consider in some depth a selection of significant works produced by major composers of the nineteenth century. In a seminar format, class meetings and assignments will focus on specific compositions, emphasizing questions of genre, form, and compositional style, but also drawing upon the musicological literature to explore a variety of broader historical and cultural issues. Substantial student participation is expected.
