課程概述	This course explores selected music cultures from around the world, using the theme-based approach of Kay Kaufman Shelemay’s Soundscapes: Exploring Music in a Changing World (New York, 2015, 3rd edition). It examines musical practices as an essential element of lived human experience, and hence will consider topics such as music and ritual, music and politics, and music and identity. Because of the blurring of cultural boundaries in today’s globalized world, the course will investigate these issues with a particular focus on Taipei, whose dynamism and diversity mirror the broader character of contemporary life.
課程目標	- to promote an appreciation of the extraordinary diversity of global musical cultures - to foster an understanding of musical sounds as intimately related to the places and sociocultural contexts associated with the peoples who create and practice them - to recognize music’s pervasive and ubiquitous role in shaping numerous aspects of everyday experience
課程要求	Students should complete the weekly assigned readings, and also listen regularly and carefully to assigned pieces of music, whose style and structured are diagrammed in detail in Kay Kaufman Shelemay, Soundscapes: Music in a Changing World.
