This course provides students with the tools to write about music across genres. Relying on existing examples, from various historical periods, of program notes, album liner notes, concert and album reviews, and academic, creative, and journalistic writing about music, students will learn the conventions of these different formats of musical writing and hone their own writing skills in order to write about music in the ways necessitated by their professional and personal goals.
