课程简介

课程名称:音乐理论入门:旋律形式与简单和声 课程概述:本课程旨在探讨音乐的运作原理,尤其是技术细节与审美之间的关系。通过发展实用的理论词汇,您将能够更好地思考和讨论音乐风格,并且提升对音乐的欣赏能力。学员将通过听、看和创作自己的音乐实例来学习音乐理论,涵盖古典、现代、古老、流行、爵士和民间音乐风格。 通过课程讲座、相关例子以及大量实践作业,您将学习旋律的基本要素,逐步进展至双声部与对位法,最后探讨三声部和和声功能的初步概念。 本课程适合有一定音乐理论基础的中级音乐家和作曲家。如果您是希望深化音乐创作、演奏或即兴演奏理解的音乐人,或者是想提升对音乐理论、审美和历史的欣赏能力的爱好者,那么本课程将非常适合您。 课程大纲: 1. 课程概述:该模块介绍了课程的内容,让您了解课程的基本信息。 2. 旋律结构:线条、形状与简单调式:在此模块中,我们将开始建立描述音乐表现技术细节的有用词汇,首先通过分析一些格里高利圣歌和经典爵士乐来进行。 3. 旋律结构:简单、重复与变化:这个模块将探讨单一旋律线的变化,帮助我们描述不同音乐风格之间的技术差异。 4. 音高的结合:协和与不协和音:在这一模块中,我们将研究音高同时演奏的不同方式,关注常规实践规则的基础。 5. 终止式与基本和声功能:我们将深入研究终止式,以描述和弦及其和声功能,为讨论不同音乐风格提供支持,同时探讨如何运用新构建的词汇来分析更完整的音乐作品的功能与美学。

课程大纲

Name:Course Overview

Description:This introductory module lets you know what is involved in the course. Come on in!

Name:Melodic Structures: Lines, Shapes, and Simple Modes

Description:In this module, we will being to develop a vocabulary that is useful in describing the technicalities behind musical expression. To do this, we will start right away closely examining some actual, real music. First we will look at some Gregorian Chant (which, come on, can be stunningly beautiful). Second we will use some slow classic Jazz to thoughtfully build our vocabulary.

Name:Melodic Structures: Simplicity, Repetition, and Change

Description:In this module, still looking at single melodic lines, we will start to branch farther afield to describe some useful technical descriptions of the differences between different simple and complicated musical styles.

Name:Combining Pitches: Consonance and Dissonance

Description:Now we will start to describe different ways to think about playing pitches simultaneously. Carefully considering our terms, we will listen to a wide spectrum of styles before settling in to focus on the basics of common practice rules.

Name:Cadences and Basic Harmonic Function

Description:Beginning with a fuller examination of cadences, we will come up with ways to describe chords and harmonic function that help us talk and think about different styles of music. Finally, we will consider how our newly constructed vocabulary can help us describe the function and aesthetics of more and more complete pieces of music.

This course is about how music works. It is about the relationship between the technical and aesthetic details of music. It is also about how developing a meaningful theoretical vocabulary can help you think and talk about musical style, and how learning that vocabulary can expand your appreciation for music. In this course you will learn music theory not by looking at theory itself, but by listening to, looking at, and—yes!—writing your own musical examples. By hearing, seeing, and writing yourself, you will learn about classical, modern, ancient, pop, jazz, and folk styles. Through lectures, relevant examples, and numerous practice assignments, we will examine fundamental aspects of melody. We will move into working with two voices and counterpoint, and finally to three voices and the beginnings of harmonic function. This is an intermediate-level course for musicians and composers who already have some understanding of music theory through previous study. If you are a musician or composer looking to build a deeper understanding of music theory for composing, performing, or improvisation, you have come to the right place. If you are an amateur lover of music or, perhaps, play a musical instrument and want to develop a deeper sense of appreciation for music theory, aesthetics, and history, you are also in the right place!
