GRMUS 663P — Creation, Improvisation, and Technology

2 credits per semester
Fall or Spring
Mari Kimura

This course challenges the conventional distinctions imposed on diverse styles of music-making, inviting students to set aside notions of “genre” and embrace new forms and techniques. Central to the course are the study and practice of extended technique, including innovations such as “Subharmonics,” and the investigation of how non-traditional methods can inform composition and improvisation.
