European music of the XIX century is marked by very strong and contrasting esthetic currents. Its representatives struggled to validate the current they joined and their confrontations where not without belligerency. The advent of criticism, subjectivity, the contrast between demand and the public’s taste with regard to works and creators marked a contradiction which affected musical production and the lives of artists. This course will study the musical repertoires of the nineteenth century from the viewpoint of their creators, esthetic thought and its relations with other expressions, especially with literature.

The history of orchestra music in the West raises a series of questions that can only be resolved via a broad approach that takes into account musical aspects such as the musical notation system, formal structures, procedures for composing, musical functionality, and the aesthetic and philosophical currents of each era, and many other aspects. This diversity of issues makes this course a rich and varied research project that presents the student community with an enriched vision of the evolution of a specific aspect of music throughout western history.

This course offers a survey of the most relevant proposals and languages in regard to the development of experimental and electrophonic music from the start of the XXth century to the first years of the XXIst. New forms of sound expression are produced as a response to the questions posed by creators against all the traditional components which constitute a musical act. From this perspective, all music should be subject to constant experimentation, proposing new codes and elements of appreciation and visualization of musical / extra-musical space-time and structure starting from what is known. Course contents present the principles developed from electrophonic and experimental music. These are applied both to specifically sound-based works as well as to a variety of forms of expression mainly in performing and visual arts which are included in the repertoire to be studied.

This course will improve the use and function of the body in terms of posture and activities. We talk about use and function, sensory appreciation, primary control, inhibition, orders, and global and partial movement. The student will develop conscious self-control that will improve the quality of body use applied to movement, voice, and breathing. It will restore the reliability of sensory appreciation to be able to evaluate the results of a conscious control process. The Alexander Technique teaches that in the human being there is a "primary control" that control the body’s energy and actions through the head and spinal column. Thus it is effectively a control mechanism for posture and movement. Considering that contemporary sedentary life leads to a deterioration in postural energy, the Alexander Technique procures, through a conscious procedure of self-observation, inhibition, and orders, to recover primary control as the basis for body use.

The piano program provides piano training that complements the process. The work in scales, arpeggios, and progressions is indispensable for studying tonality. The progressions cover cadences and simple modulations and the use of all the degrees and modulations of distant intervals. The sonata form must be present during the entire process, given its importance in the development of tonal music. This program avoids the dilemmas of repertory believing that instructor criteria must be honest relative to the individual development of students and their program levels. The inclusion of free choice in the program permits Latin American contemporary and other types of repertory as long as they are originals for piano. The works must be presented at tempo and in the correct style.

The central purpose of this course is for the student to explore musical construction based on horizontality, in other words, the melody and the things related to melody for managing several voices, considering, of course, formal construction from a harmonic concept (Bach). The student will gather the knowledge and develop sufficient skills for melodic construction with two voices. The course will deal comprehensively with several aspects that come together in composition, although apparently they do not agree on the topic of the offbeat, such as ways to build meter, simple binary and ternary forms, logical bases for the consideration of harmonic ties and incidence of the same in the melodic management.

In this course, the student will conduct at least 2 projects on compositions in genres complementary to each sub-area, in this case students of composition (Acoustic-instrumental) 1-4, the complementary genre is electro acoustic and therefore, the projects, exercises and topics to be dealt with must me focused from and towards the problem of electro acoustic composition. Likewise, we will apply elements of approach to languages and composing techniques of the XX century in a practical manner, aiming to conducting the concepts on a creative and personalized fashion, open to proposals given by the student but, with strict technical and composition related patterns bearing in mind the electro acoustic mean. In this course we also enter into a dialectic process through the analysis, discussion and confrontation with the student and his/her thought, thus widening the perspectives of aesthetic understanding. For such reason, we must raise the awareness on the aesthetic techniques and thoughts related to the creative processes on electro acoustic composing. We include an electro acoustic repertoire from XX and XXI centuries.
