Boulanger was famous for her analysis class. Philip Lasser continues this tradition.
Instructors: Philip Lasser, Benjamin C.S. Boyle
Taught in relation to the other courses, this class studies in-depth contrapuntal, harmonic, structural and rhythmic issues in great works of Western music. (A list of the works to be studied this year will be sent to students enrolled in the program.)
The class is taught at two levels for the first two weeks of the program: Level 1 for first time students and Level 2 for returning students. This Advanced Analysis level is for returning sudents only. The levels then merge for the analysis classes on major works. The selected major works vary from year to year.
