In the absence of notated music, the techniques and principles of Soundpainting will be studied toward understanding music’s creative structures. Students will meet in class twice a week, study learning materials for the course (reading, listening, discussion activies), toward applying ideas and skills to create together musical works of their own design. All students will learn to direct, improvise, and co-create music that reflects the expressive input of the group. Reflective study and dialogue on the creative process will facilitate critical understanding of how music expresses ideas about self, others, and community, and can generate deeply transformational change to those identities. Course assignment toward the final grade include: Three compositions; Two short written essays analyzing the creative processes of selected musicians; Low-Stakes reading summaries; Attendance and Engagement; Collaborative Community Vision.
