Course Description
Course Description
The goal of the instructional objectives for High School General Music is to enable students to use critical- thinking skills to study the musical concepts applicable to performance and nonperformance music courses. Students continue to develop skills in reading and understanding music notation and to explore the expression and organization of musical ideas. They make connections between the elements of music as they relate to other fields of knowledge. Students examine the cultural perspectives of music in society.
