December 6 - Music Slam
One-double-session crash review for most of the Music Theory Final -- in this nicely-crushed-down to 16-week semester, unfortunately interrupted by the cancellation-due-to-Camp-Fire-smoke on November 20 -- beginning with
Elton John's The Lion King (1991): Circle of Life, continuing with
Mark Alburger's Antigone, Op. 88 (2000): XII. The Pride of Oedipus and
Thom Yorke's Kid A (2000): Morning Bell, + a brief pitch from
Nick Vesallo re Composition Class to
our 20-strong class (in 16 years of teaching at DVC and probably before this as well, there always seems to be at least one instance when someone shows up in a Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon t-shirt, and this time it's Aine...) and excellent Student Composition III's, including those of
Max and
Noah, on this
again very early,
26th
