The book also includes a number of chapters on American entertainment and art music that we will not cover as a class but that comprise an important resource for your library. Stomping the Blues, by Murray and Singing Cowboys and Musical Mountaineers by Malone are books that have been chosen as a compliment to Kingman's hefty text. We will be getting to those later on in the semester. Listening Class tapes are on reserve in the music library. Some of these tapes are copies of the fine recorded collections of American Music, others are custom made composite tapes compiled by myself.
All tapes have a number and a title.
Tape notes are also located on the reserve shelf. At times I may put record albums and compact discs on reserve for your listening. You can't cram the listening. Listen, listen, and listen again. We work hard to build and maintain a collection of audio-visual materials, scores, books, and periodicals for our students and faculty to use.
