Music Techniques 2

This unit (ACO2005) of study consolidates technical, interpretive and self-evaluation skills in the areas of music practice, theory, technology and musicology, with particular focus on student skills and knowledge in relation to the practice and applied theory of music. Students further develop an understanding of music theory, complementary aural skills and a context for how music develops in basic styles and genres. Students are assisted in further developing and evaluating their instrumental and/or vocal techniques and interpretative skills. A program of musical works is selected to present technical, improvisational and interpretive challenges. Students continue to develop key academic, musicological and technological skills, particularly as they relate to theoretical and practical music techniques.
