Concepts: Music Appreciation in a Historical and Cultural Context
This is a course consisting of an introduction and overview of the music of Western Civilization. Study of the various
historical periods is presented within the context of music and its overall development. The class covers the cultural
background of each period and includes aspects of musical literature along with exposure to some of the most
significant musicians of each period. We will approach the process of learning and understanding music through the
use of various materials for listening activities, ongoing reading and listening assignments, class discussions, and
include the practice and development of basic musical skills.
All students are welcome. At the beginning of the course it is important that each student identify his/her level of
musical interest and pursuit as well as vocal and/or instrumental proficiency. Participation in musical activities
facilitates your musical and overall understanding, as well as the use of terminology presented throughout the course.
Learning Goals of the Course
Upon successful completion of this course you will be able to:
1. Identify and discuss aspects of music from different centuries with informed reference to time periods before and after.
Syllabus: Music Appreciation – 10386 – Spring, 2016
2
2. Identify some principal or significant musicians up to the present day.
3. Identify (through listening/aural and stylistic analysis) the different types of music created and performed in different
centuries. When applicable, you will learn and practice using musical parameters for formal analysis such as melody,
rhythm, harmony, tonality, texture, form, and orchestration/instrumentation.
4. Apply formal analysis* (= stylistic analysis) and interpret works from each period of music. Please note that the
extent to which one can describe music in detail depends, in part, upon previous musical training in theory,
instrumental or vocal proficiency, etc.
5. Better understand and appreciate the requirements for making music and know how to practice and develop basic
musical skills and musicianship.

Required Work
- Mid-term Test, written and listening test, one hour and fifteen minutes, 40%
A written and listening test consists of a series of questions in print along with a listening segment. You will have to
answer questions in True or False, multiple choice, or fill in the blank segments, and identify a series of musical works
from audio musical examples played in succession. You will not specifically be tested on, say, the dates of a particular
composer, but you must demonstrate your knowledge of music literature and composers in their historical context.
- Final Test, written and listening test, one hour and fifteen minutes, 40%
A written and listening test consists of a series of questions in print along with a listening segment. You will have to

composer, but you must demonstrate your knowledge of music literature and composers in their historical context.
- Attendance, 10%
It is expected that you attend every class and also understood that difficult circumstances and emergencies do arise.

- Participation, 10%
This I normally apply in your favor to reward class participation, improvement, and effort to raise the grade above the
strict mathematical average.
Paper* (extra credit)
You may exercise initiative to improve your grade by preparing a two (2) to three (3) page paper. It can be based upon
a topic from the assigned reading material or something discussed in class. This would in effect become a resource
paper to distribute to the rest of the class. You can submit the paper to me as a .doc or .pdf as late as Tuesday, April 28th
through email ([email protected]) and I will print copies.
* I record the grade as a note and YES, it can actually factor into the semester grade.
Instructor and Class Policies
Instructor’s Professional Statement:
“I want to empower you – to build a competitive musical foundation on which to cultivate your present and future love
for music – and yes, to change your life.” Should you want to know more about my work as a concert artist and unique
perspectives on music and teaching, please visit my professional website at www.FrancisLeger.com
Instructor’s Discretion:
For this class, I reserve the right of final decision in course requirements.
Late Work and Make-Up Work Policy:
Your acceptance and enrollment at the University confirms your commitment to attend classes. Therefore, late work
and make-up work are not accepted. If a test or exam is missed because of illness or extenuating circumstances, the
student must contact me as soon as possible to schedule a make-up exam. All make-up exams should be taken within
one week of the missed exam date unless a suitable make-up time is not available. Required papers and extra credit
papers must be submitted by the appropriate date.
Cell Phones:
Cell phones must be turned “off”, and there is no text messaging. For TAMUCT safety requirements I will leave my
cell phone “on”.
Communications:
E-mail is an official way of communicating with the class. Please check your email regularly for any changes to
assignments, etc. I accept papers only in digital format, preferably a .pdf, but also as a .doc.
Computers:
Generally, it is better not to have computers for taking notes in class. You may bring computers to test review sessions.
Syllabus: Music Appreciation – 10386 – Spring, 2016

Study Notes:
Please be aware that study notes will be made available to you as pdfs or handouts. Therefore, you do not have to take
notes about details such as names, dates, etc. because you will have access to those later. This should leave you free to
look at the texts and images, listen to the lectures and music examples played in class, and join in any discussion while
taking only “minimal” notes along the way.
How to Organize Your Studying
Study and review the set of Study Notes thoroughly and repeatedly for definitions, concepts and information.
Take notes on the class lectures, but only “limited” notes. All the names, dates, and much text are in the Study Notes.
Keep up with reading the texts, preferably before the lectures, to enable questions and class discussions.
I recommend that you start:
… referring to your timelines and outlines, learning the main musical / historical periods, dates, and the context of
musical, historical events and culture.
… familiarizing yourself with musical works by period styles, always being aware that a work may arguably be
transitional or placed in more than one “style.” You should know why a work is in this or that particular style, and not
just memorize it as a certain fact. Think critically* whenever possible.
… reading so as to enlarge your awareness and love of music, its importance to you and the larger world, and
your overall English and foreign language “vocabulary”, which will help you gain a better understanding of every
aspect of music.
* What is the definition of critical thinking? Evaluation of the extent to which a statement is true, partly true or false.
* What is the definition of analysis? Unraveling of an object or phenomenon into its constituent parts.

COURSE AND UNIVERSITY POLICIES AND PROCEDURES
Drop Policy:
Occasionally, one encounters life circumstances that require extensive immediate attention. Should you be challenged
by such a predicament that does not allow you to devote the necessary time, effort, disciplined work and attention to
complete the course, then a suitable choice may be to drop the course before the drop deadline.
If you discover that you need to drop this class, you must go to the Records Office and ask for the necessary paperwork.
Professors cannot drop students; this is always the responsibility of the student. The record’s office will provide a
deadline for which the form must be returned, completed and signed. Once you return the signed form to the records
office and wait 24 hours, you must go into Warrior Web and confirm that you are no longer enrolled. Should you still
be enrolled, FOLLOW-UP with the records office immediately! You are to attend class until the procedure is complete
to avoid penalty for absence. Should you miss the deadline or fail to follow the procedure, you will receive an F in the
course.
Incomplete Policy:
If you want to discontinue the course and a drop is not possible because the drop deadline has passed, then an
incomplete may be an appropriate alternative. An incomplete does not dismiss you from the rigors of the class offerings
and course requirements. However, it does enable you to complete all requirements by allotting sufficient time to give
your best scholastic effort.
Academic Integrity:
Texas A&M University-Central Texas values the integrity of the academic enterprise and strives for the highest
standards of academic conduct. A&M-Central Texas expects its students, faculty, and staff to support the adherence to
high standards of personal and scholarly conduct to preserve the honor and integrity of the creative community.
Academic integrity is defined as a commitment to honesty, trust, fairness, respect, and responsibility. Any deviation by
students from this expectation may result in a failing grade for the assignment and potentially a failing grade for the
course.
Academic misconduct is any act that improperly affects a true and honest evaluation of a student’s academic
performance and includes, but is not limited to, cheating on an examination or other academic work, plagiarism and
improper citation of sources, using another student’s work, collusion, and the abuse of resource materials. All academic
misconduct concerns will be reported to the University’s Office of Student Conduct. Ignorance of the University’s
standards and expectations is never an excuse to act with a lack of integrity.
When in doubt on collaboration, citation, or any issue, please contact your instructor before taking a course of action.
Access & Inclusion:
At Texas A&M University–Central Texas, we value an inclusive learning environment where every student has an
equal chance to succeed and has the right to an education that is barrier-free. The Office of Access & Inclusion is
responsible for ensuring that students with a disability enjoy equal access to the University's programs, services and
activities. Some aspects of this course or the way the course is taught may present barriers to learning due to a
disability. If you feel this is the case, please contact Access & Inclusion at (254) 501-5831 in Warrior Hall, Ste. 212.
