From Class Wed 11/10/10

  1. Listening for the test:
    Be able to ID the title and the period the piece is from (Romantic or 20th century)
    Might be a good idea to get a handle on the composers (hint hint)
  2. Free concert:
    Friday, 11/19/10 at Mercer Music school @ Noon. Martha Malone and I will be doing some vocal jazz [well, **I** will be playing, not singing!]
  3. Free Concert: Friday December 3 at 7:30 PM. The Macon State Chamber Choir will perform at First Presbyterian church [downtown Macon on Mulberry street, across the street from the Grand Opera House].

    Concert report must be turned in at or before the Final exam the next week

Vista/WebCT --> 20th C powerpoint

Thanks for letting me know it wasn't there.

I had an older version stashed on the server - it mostly matches what I've been using in class. I'll try to upload the newest version this afternoon - if I'm successful you'll see 2 versions inside the 20tn Century folder.
