1 1 AP Music Theory Syllabus CHS Fine Arts Department Contact Information: Parents may contact me by phone, or visiting the school. Teacher: Karen Moore Address: Phone Number: (740) ext Online: CHS Vision Statement: Our vision is to be a caring learning center respected for its comprehensive excellence. CHS Mission Statement: Our mission is to prepare our students to serve their communities and to commit to life-long learning Course Description and Prerequisite(s) from Course Handbook: AP Music Theory 670 (semester) State Course # Level II Prerequisite: None Elective Grade: 9-12 Weighted Grade Credit: 1 This course integrates the fundamentals of music, basic theory, listening and appreciation. The Honors section of the Course prepares students to continue on to the AP section, offered spring semester. Students study the integration aspects of melody, harmony, texture, rhythm, form, and to some extent, history and style. Students must have acquired at least basic performance skills in voice or on an instrument. Students will be taught to read, to notate and to compose music. The AP section of the course is designed to develop students ability to recognize, understand and describe materials and processes of music that is heard or presented in a variety of music scores. The major topics include: 1. Functional triadic harmony in four voice texture 2. Vocabulary including non-chord tones and secondary dominants 3. Tonal relationships and modulations to closely related keys 4. Standard rhythms and meters, two voice contrapuntal techniques, examples of smaller forms 5. Correct notational skills
2 2 Big Ideas/Purpose per Unit and Essential Questions/Concepts per Unit: Defined below for clarity are the Big Ideas/Purpose of every unit taught during this course and the essential questions/concepts to be learned to better understand the Big Ideas/Purpose. A student s ability to grasp, answer, and apply the essential questions/concepts will define whether or not he or she adequately learns the Big Ideas/Purpose and scores well on assessments given for this course. The Common Core Standards can be found at Aural and Dictation Components: The aural and dictation components in music theory will be introduced parallel to when the concepts are introduced as notation. Students will be expected to learn solfege, which allows them to aurally discern a melody without the aid of an instrument. Aural dictation uses both melodic and rhythmic concepts to determine a musical passage. Students will practice listening and notating short passages of melodic and rhythmic notation for ear training. With short compositional projects throughout the semester, students will ultimately be required to compose an eightmeasure song using all the concepts learned in the course. 1 st 9 Weeks: Unit I - Music Notation Big Idea #1: The Piano Keyboard & Music Staff Essential Question #1: How is the piano keyboard arranged?
