More Description For courses in Music Appreciation Listen to the music. Hear the elements. Connect your playlist.Listen to This is designed to connect students' interest in the music on their own playlists with great music from throughout history and all over the world. It is based on the idea that all music is built on a combination of a few basic elements -- melody, dynamics, rhythm, harmony, texture, timbre, form, and word-music relationships -- and if students listen for those elements they can better understand how a piece of music works, no matter how unfamiliar it may seem at first. This elements-centred approach provides a strong foundation for learning about, and enjoying, many new musical styles. The 4th Edition includes expanded coverage of timbre as well as new chapters on additional musical works.
