MUSIC 123I: Undergraduate Seminar in Composition: Music, Art, and Intermedia (ARTSTUDI 123I)

How do music and art relate? How does one speak for, with, the other? In the past century, Western visual art turned towards abstraction and time-based works. Techniques and processes for interaction between image and sound expanded dramatically. What better place to learn about them than the Anderson Collection? Through students' own visual and aural creations, we will explore and share individual approaches to time, symbol, memory, and meaning. Previous experience in music composition is welcome but not required. This course must be taken for a minimum of 3 units and a letter grade to be eligible for Ways-AII credit.

MUSIC 143F: Nineteenth-Century Pianism: History, Works, & Performance Practices (MUSIC 243F)

This seminar narrows the divide between performance and musicology. With nineteenth-century pianism as an extended case study, this course will explore representative and less common composers, works, and performers. Subtopics will include historical performance practices, notation, critical editions, period pianos, hermeneutics, recording analysis, and the cultural politics of performing and listening. Students will hone writing, research, and performance skills through a variety of assignments, seminar discussions, and in-class exercises, culminating with a lecture-recital. Possible field trips will include Stanford's Archive of Recorded Sound and selected live performances. Prerequisites: Intermediate to advanced performance ability; intermediate or higher music theory. WIM at 4 units only.

MUSIC 146N: Transcultural Perspectives of South-East Asian Music and Arts (COMPLIT 148, COMPLIT 267, FRENCH 260A, MUSIC 246N)

This course will explore the links between aspects of South-East Asian cultures and their influence on modern and contemporary Western art and literature, particularly in France; examples of this influence include Claude Debussy (Gamelan music), Jacques Charpentier (Karnatak music), Auguste Rodin (Khmer art) and Antonin Artaud (Balinese theater). In the course of these interdisciplinary analyses - focalized on music and dance but not limited to it - we will confront key notions in relation to transculturality: orientalism, appropriation, auto-ethnography, nostalgia, exoticism and cosmopolitanism. We will also consider transculturality interior to contemporary creation, through the work of contemporary composers such as Tran Kim Ngoc, Chinary Ung and Tôn-Thât Tiêt. Viewings of sculptures, marionette theater, ballet, opera and cinema will also play an integral role. To satisfy a Ways requirement, this course must be taken for at least 3 units. WIM credit in Music at 4 units and a letter grade.

MUSIC 146S: Sound Tracks: Music, Memory, Migration (CSRE 146S)

Music records racial and ethnic histories. How can critically listening to the musics of diasporic and migratory peoples attune us to the processes of identity formation, racialization, and self-understanding? In this course will gain deeper insights into how communities have used music to respond to the challenges of migration and minoritization under ever-changing nationalist frames. As we listen to musics from the Romani, Jewish, African, and Latinx diasporas, we explore how race, ethnicity, identity, heritage, nationalism, minoritization, hybridity, and diversity are refracted through sound. WIM at 4 units only.

MUSIC 153E: Close Listening: Sound, Media, and Performance (FEMGEN 153D, FILMEDIA 153E, TAPS 153D)

Are there ways to listen? This new course approaches the question by exploring artist works that have challenged the norms of sonic experience. We will discover that in life, as in the arts, there are practices of listening. We will cover a range of texts on sound media, and we will experience a number of works that reinvent practices of listening. There will be particular attention to the work of feminist sound artists. In conversation with art and theory, we will develop wider awareness for the sounds of everyday life. This course meets once a week, and group listening of select works is part of the class.

MUSIC 159M: Gay Guerilla: a hands-on experience of the life, music and legacy of Julius Eastman

This hands-on course explores the life and music of Julius Eastman, in which he endeavored to be "Black to the fullest, a musician to the fullest, and a homosexual to the fullest". His music deals with issues of race, gender, sexual orientation, and class, and was stylistically groundbreaking in many ways, preceding some of the earliest examples of minimalism and particularly marking the downtown New York scene of the 70s and 80s. Class meetings will include guest lectures, labs, and the opportunity to participate in and/or contribute to a live presentation of Eastman's music by Stanford Live at Bing Concert Hall. This course must be taken for a minimum of three units and a letter grade to be eligible for WAY-AII credit. For WAY-CE, the course may be taken for fewer than three units (note that if you take a WAY-CE class for only one unit you will need to take another unit of WAY-CE from the same department, as you need at least two units of WAY-CE). Please note that this course also counts towards African and African-American Studies minor/major.
