 MFA 512 Advanced Cinematic Score Study II

Prerequisite

MFA 502

The radical changes in compositional technique introduced by Modernism, Minimalism, Post-Minimalism, and other new forms, as well as simultaneous breakthroughs in electronic music and the integration of non-Western tonal systems into popular music, have had a profound effect on the way music for visual media sounds and the expectations content creators have for it. In this course you will continue the work of Cinematic Score Study I to explore the paths that brought music to where it is now, and consider where it is going in the future.   

This course is 4.5 credits.
