MUS 156(1-1-1)
Aural Skills II

Aural Skills II is a skills development course designed to enhance performance through the recognition and mental imaging of a broad range of musical structures. It continues work in the fundamentals of tonal music: scales, rhythmic patterns, modes, triads, seventh chords, and chord patterns and introduces modulations, non-harmonic tones, inversions of seventh chords, and four-voice chord progressions and patterns. Students are trained to aurally recognize, notate and vocally reproduce these elements. The course also emphasizes sight singing and the use of solfege as a learning and study tool.
