School of Music · ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences
The Foundational Musicianship course runs through all music majors at ANU. Here students will develop core skills underpinning analytical and practical engagement in a variety of musical idioms, including classical, jazz, and popular styles. In this course, students apply their knowledge of functional harmony to gain a deeper appreciation of music while developing greater fluency in reading and interpreting different modes of music notation. Analytical skills are complimented by relevant aural skills, including audiation (inner hearing) and aural awareness of related melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic structures.
