Introduction to American Music (3) Survey of music in America, including classical, jazz, rock, folk, and ethnic, within the context of American history. MUSC CA1035. History of Rock and Roll (3) This course is a survey of Rock Music styles from ca. 1950 to the present. We also discuss pre- and proto- rock styles such as Jazz, Blues, and popular song, reaching back into the late nineteenth century. In the course we will not only study the changing history of rock music (which requires discussion of non-rock music as well), but also the cultural forces that gave rise to those changes. Because of this historical perspective, our approach will be largely chronological, with an eye toward how various styles influenced one another. Weber State University 2011 -2012 Catalog
