MUSI 112: Listening to Music (Fall 2008, Open Yale Courses). Instructor: Professor Craig Wright.
The music of Mozart has been used to examine the foreground and middle-ground of harmony in courses AA314_1 and AA314_2. In this course, Voice-leading analysis of music 3: the background, you will use Beethoven’s Eighth Symphony to consider the largest-scale stage of voice-leading analysis.
This course, Voice-leading analysis of music 2: the middle ground, continues our examination of ‘voice-leading’ or ‘Schenkerian’ analysis, perhaps the most widely used and discussed the method of analyzing tonal music. In this course, this method is explained through the analysis of piano sonatas by Mozart. The course is the second in the AA314 series of three courses on this form of harmonic analysis and concentrates on the ‘middle ground level’ of voice leading. As you work through this course, you will become familiar with the deeper levels of harmony in Mozart’s piano sonatas.

The course is the first in the AA314 series of three courses on this form of harmonic analysis and concentrates on the ‘foreground level’ of voice leading. As you work through this course, you will become familiar with five complete movements of Mozart’s piano sonatas, as well as shorter extracts from some of his other sonatas.
Besides being simple mementos, family photographs can offer insights into the past. This course, Picturing the family, looks at some of the ways photographs can reveal, and sometimes conceal, important information about the past. It teaches the skills and provides some of the knowledge needed to interpret such pictorial sources.
