The Essential Listening to Music, International Edition [平裝] (聆聽音樂基礎)

內容簡介

THE ESSENTIAL LISTENING TO MUSIC, 6E, International Edition draws on the strengths of author Craig Wright's larger volumes—outstanding listening pedagogy, clear writing, state-of-the-art online ancillaries—and delivers them in a style that is designed to connect with today's students and inspire a lifelong appreciation of music. In this concise book, scholar and master-teacher Wright focuses on the key concepts and works presented within a typical Music Appreciation course, avoids lengthy discussions on side topics, and includes a set of integrated digital resources that make it easier—and fun—for students to master the material. THE ESSENTIAL LISTENING TO MUSIC, 6E, International Edition is approximately 60 percent shorter than the large volume and is priced much lower than our larger texts.

This chronological text discusses musical examples from each historical period, each discussed within its social context. This provides students with a sense of a piece's construction, as well as its historical and cultural meaning.

As an instructor, you can also tailor THE ESSENTIAL LISTENING TO MUSIC, 6E, International Edition to fit your specific needs by include additional content from the larger edition of LISTENING TO MUSIC.
