Students will learn to better listen to music scores in movies and video games by learning how to recognize the different ways musical themes occur. They will learn the history of the techniques used today to make memorable film and video game music, and how to interpret subtle changes in the music they hear.
I have a Bachelor of Music degree and have always loved the study of music (musicology). I even considered becoming a musicologist! I've enjoyed teaching teens in both private and group settings for the last three years.
