| MUSI 232 - HISTORY OF ROCK 'N' ROLL |
|
This course is an introductory examination of rock-n-roll within its historical and cultural contexts, and places a special focus on rock-n-roll's roles--geographical, political, social, economic--within the United States (with a few notable exceptions from across the pond). Although we often take for granted that rock-n-roll is a nationwide and even international music, it is a music that plays a part in local events and has special meaning within local cultures. In this class, we will focus especially on the different people and places that have helped form rock-n-roll genres in order to gain a broader understanding of the music's role in American life.
