This course will introduce students to South-European traditional expressive cultures from a historical and ethnographic methodological angle. We will be studying instrumental and vocal musical traditions along the Mediterranean shore from the Iberian Peninsula to Greece, including disport Sephardic and pertaining to primarily oral repertoires. The course will thus provide students with a much needed understanding of the 'other' musics of the Southern European continent that complement and provide sonic resources for 'the classical' repertoires of the written tradition.

Class Notes:
The course is a seminar about the gestural perspectives of musical performance. We shall first introduce the general theory of musical gestures as described in Mazzola's book, "The Topos of Music vol. III: Gestures." We shall then apply this theory to investigate the gestural character of music performance, also after having studied the essentials of performance from Mazzola's "Performance Theory" book. Applying this knowledge, the students will investigate their own instruments when the perform. In particular, we will apply Mazzola's theory of vocal performance as a tripartite structure consisting of external, middle, and internal gesture, following Johann Sundberg's theory of partials in singing.

Music Informatics Seminar In this seminar we discuss topics about latest developments in computer and music, it includes students' talks about own and others' published work. It also strongly relates to our own programming environment rubato composer (in Java), but working with rubato is not a prerequisite.. The seminar is the core meeting hour for our new music informatics group at the University of Minnesota. We want to exchange interests and knowledge bout this very active field. Professor Mazzola has been active since 1984 in this field, including the development of the presto composition software and the rubato universal platform for performance, analysis, and composition. He is also the president of the Society for Computation and Mathematics in Music, and has led such a research group at the CS department of the University of Zurich from 1992 to 2006. The seminar should generate an intense booster for working and publishing in this field.

Topic: Medieval Lovers and Crusaders
Class Description:
In this course we will investigate medieval vernacular repertoires from the Iberian Peninsula to Central Europe from the twelfth to the fifteenth century, with particular emphasis on the 'amour courtois' and crusader repertoires in the context of trans-Mediterranean cultural exchanges. We will address questions pertaining to their contemporaneous socio-cultural and economic milieu, organology, and aspects of dissemination of musical instruments in the context of the larger Mediterranean cultural exchange, as well as performance practice, the relationship between text and music, and the relationship between oral and written modes of composition and transmission.

Though the focus of this course will be Wagner's monumental Ring music drama, the nature of our study will be interdisciplinary. We will invoke social criticism, German medieval poetry, Norse mythology, music biography, Jungian psychology, visual arts, twentieth-century fantasy literature, nineteenth-century German philosophy, theater, and music analysis in an effort to better understand the multi-faceted nature of Wagner's Gesamtkunstwerk and the many ways it has affected western culture over the past 125 years. Readings, art collections, video recordings, and music recordings will enable us to engage Wagner's Ring from a number of different angles culminating, by semester's end, in a thorough knowledge of Der Ring which spans the boundaries of many fields of inquiry.

This course will explore the rich musical diversity of the African diaspora from the Caribbean and South America to West Africa, including such traditions as rumba, son, mambo, merengue, zouk, reggae, calypso, samba, juju, and soukous. Ethnographic studies, as well as other relevant scholarship, will help situate the emergence of these popular genres within broader colonial and post-colonial discourses of political power, economic development, social structure, and cultural expression. The roles played by racial ideologies, mass-media industries, and nationalist movements in shaping artist and audience conceptions of the music will receive particular attention, as will the common trans-Atlantic musical roots and routes that have engendered what Paul Gilroy has called a counterculture of modernity.

In this course we will investigate medieval vernacular repertoires from the Iberian Peninsula to Central Europe from the twelfth to the fifteenth century, with particular emphasis on the 'amour courtois' and crusader repertoires in the context of trans-Mediterranean cultural exchanges. We will address questions pertaining to their contemporaneous socio-cultural and economic milieu, organology, and aspects of dissemination of musical instruments in the context of the larger Mediterranean cultural exchange, as well as performance practice, the relationship between text and music, and the relationship between oral and written modes of composition and transmission.

Class Description:
Freud, Schoenberg, Kafka: Conflict, Flux, and Imperfection Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), Arnold Schoenberg (1874-1951), and Franz Kafka (1883-1924) were revolutionary figures in their fields, respectively redefining psychiatry, music, and literature. The three had other things in common: they were contemporaries, and all three were Jewish citizens of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, in many ways alienated from the majority. More significantly, despite very little evidence of direct mutual influence, all three shared a striking degree of parallels in their creative work. Freud became the chief theorist of the uncanny (das Unheimliche), Schoenberg became the composer whose works probed the uncanny in musical thought, and Kafka's name itself became a synonym for the uncanny ? the Kafkaesque. And all three were also fixated on a set of ideas that we can trace to the pre-Socratic Greek, Heraclitus: conflict, flux, and imperfection. Our study will focus on the parallels among these three creative geniuses, the work of each shedding light on that of the others.

Class Description:
Music Informatics Seminar In this seminar we discuss topics about latest developments in computer and music, it includes students' talks about own and others' published work. It also strongly relates to our own programming environment rubato composer (in Java), but working with rubato is not a prerequisite.. The seminar is the core meeting hour for our new music informatics group at the University of Minnesota. We want to exchange interests and knowledge bout this very active field. Professor Mazzola has been active since 1984 in this field, including the development of the presto composition software and the rubato universal platform for performance, analysis, and composition. He is also the president of the Society for Computation and Mathematics in Music, and has led such a research group at the CS department of the University of Zurich from 1992 to 2006. The seminar should generate an intense booster for working and publishing in this field.
