Techniques of music listening developed through musical sight-singing,
dictation, and aural analysis. Topics are coordinated with the co-requisite
course, Theory & Practice II: Tonal Harmony & Voice Leading. This course
builds on skills developed in Aural Skills I. Students learn techniques for
critically listening to, analyzing, and notating four-part diatonic harmony
and basic chromatic harmony including secondary functions and modulation,
advanced rhythm and meter, chromatic melodies, and instrumentation.

The objective of this course is to develop a broad understanding of language and
communication in autism. We discuss the history of scientific understanding of autism, current evidence, the neurodiversity movement, and cover a range of current ideas in theory and practice. We learn about the characteristics of autistic language and communication at multiple levels of linguistic analysis. We learn from a variety of perspectives, including those of autistic individuals, speech-language therapists and other clinicians, and friends and family members.

This course will provide musicians with an opportunity to physically embody music through the form of Baroque dance. Basic Baroque dance steps, phrases & ornamentations, will be learned & examined through the historic relationship between the two art forms of music & dance. An exploration of the Beauchamp-Feuillet notation system will then be applied to their own reconstructions & their performances throughout the semester.

This introductory course prepares students to use statistics for data analysis. The course makes use of statistical computer software to achieve hands-on experience with data. This course covers methods for displaying and describing data as well as statistical inference. Topics include frequency distributions and their graphical representations, percentiles, measures of central tendency and dispersion, hypothesis tests, analysis of variance, correlation, and simple regression.

• Department: Applied Statistics, Social Science, and Humanities

Review of the essential mathematics for statistics. Collection & tabulation of data; the properties of frequency distributions; histograms; boxplots; measures of central tendency, dispersion & correlation; tests of hypothesis using the normal curve, the T distribution, the F distribution. Liberal Arts Core/CORE Equivalent - satisfies the requirement for Quantitative Reasoning for Steinhardt students.
