MUSC 1025 - CA History of Country Music

Institution:

Weber State University

Subject:

Music

Description:

This course is a survey of Country Music styles from ca. 1920 to the present. We also discuss related styles such as Hillbilly, Rock, jazz, folk, Bluegrass and popular song, reaching back into the nineteenth century. We will not only study the changing history of country music (which requires discussion of non-country music as well), but also the cultural forces that gave rise to those changes. Because of this historical perspective, our approach will be largely chronological, with an eye toward how various styles influenced one another.
