MUSI 321 - Composer in Focus: Joseph HaydnSemester Offered: Spring
1 unit(s)
The most celebrated, commercially successful, and universally popular composer of the long eighteenth century was Joseph Haydn (1732-1809). A prolific and encyclopedic composer who cultivated every musical genre, Haydn also exemplified the extraordinary cultural shifts of his time, beginning as a humble employee under the old system of aristocratic patronage, and culminating as a free agent in the marketplace of musical ideas. In this course we will study Haydn’s life and music–including symphonies, oratorios–and examine the developments in style that emerged over the lenghty span of his career. Ms. Libin.
Prerequisites: MUSI 105 -MUSI 106 and MUSI 246 -MUSI 247 , or permission of the instructor.
One three-hour period.
