Understanding Music

Understanding Music teaches students what to listen for in music. Jeremy Yudkin's text is a rich music appreciation program that supports the instructor's ultimate goal of teaching active listening. By focusing on music of the Western tradition in its social, historical, and global context, this text engages students in an active listening experience of music through a lively narrative and innovative activities- all supported by a computer program which once downloaded will allow you to use the web-based listening guides, and printed listening guides within the text.
