COURSE Code: MUS. 305
3 Credits
Course Description
This course will expose students to a variety of musical and production scenarios through a study of the evolution of music producing, and through in-class recording sessions. These sessions will allow students to apply the work being done in the Creative Development course, and will result in each student having a recording of themselves. Significant recordings and producers from the past century will be studied for their production value and relevance to music of the time. A variety of styles, instrumentation, and genres of music will be considered along with production practices for those scenarios. Further, a survey of historically important popular music producers such as Les Paul, Phil Spector, George Martin, Teo Macero and many others will also be undertaken.
