We'll try drawing, painting, sculpture, woodworking, whatever it takes to exercise the creative muscles that are often quit atrophied in college freshmen. Darva Campbell, Professor. Department of Music, DMA, U of Memphis Music is important historically because it gives us insight into the social and political structures of the past, as well as giving us great music to listen to now and a basis for the music being written today. In GST I try to give the students an overview of the elements of music, a brief guided tour through music history, and a chance to make a little music together. GST is my favorite class to teach, because while music is usually taught as a separate course, in GST it is offered as a part of the whole.
History makes much more sense when the entire picture is examined.
