Synopsis

For one-quarter/two-semester, undergraduate-level courses in Music Appreciation/Introduction to Music, and Music History in Departments of Music, Arts, Fine Arts, or Humanities.

Designed to help instructors teach the way they want to teach, Prentice Hall has assembled a music appreciation program with a maximum amount of flexibility and choice which supports the instructor's ultimate goal of teaching active learning. It focuses on music of the Western tradition in its social, historical, and global context, and engages students in a total active listening experience of that music through lively text and innovative activities―all supported by accompanying CD recordings, CD-ROM interactive tutorials/guides, and videos.
