課程概述

This course explores the history, styles, and cultural meanings of musical theater in the Euro-American context, from the invention of opera in Italy around the turn of the seventeenth century to popular theatrical forms of the nineteenth and twentieth century such as the Viennese operetta and the British-American musical. It will particularly examine the collaboration among various arts and examine the composition and performance of music not as a “thing in itself,” but as arising out of intensive dialogue with the requirements and proclivities of texts, stagings, and other theatrical elements. In addition, it considers the rich cultural significances which European and American theatrical works have constructed and transmitted, related to themes of nationalism, race, and gender, among others. 

課程目標
Class meetings will focus on discussions of assigned readings and listenings. These will be drawn from the list below and will be posted on the course website. In addition, there will be a semester project, on a related topic of your choice, which will culminate in a final presentation and paper. 
課程要求
Prerequisites: The ability to read music notation and a knowledge of basic concepts of music theory (e.g. key, tonic, tripartite form) are necessary in order to comprehend the musical analyses that will form a part of the course.
