• MUA290 Master Class – Contemporary Music for Percussion (normally part of a 20 unit course), 5 units.

Description
Percussion is one of the most important instrumental groups in contemporary western art music. Instrumental possibilities have been the driving force in the development of the genre. This course is for percussionists who wish to expand and deepen their knowledge of contemporary art music; the solo and chamber music repertory, its interpretation and esthetic. Participation of percussion ensembles is also possible. The repertory is chosen for each individual/group during an interview. Classes are held from June 14-20 with a final concert on the last day of class.
