The course texts below were developed for use in the undergraduate Music Theory sequence at NYU Steinhardt. Each site outlines lesson materials for the corresponding course, including readings, videos, links to online resources, discussion topics, in-class activities, and references to repertoire featured in the Music Theory and Aural Skills Anthologies.
This project is the result of a collaborative effort by NYU faculty, including Sarah Louden, Adem Birson, and Kevin Laskey.Â
