MUS 123 SC - Music and the Performance of Identities: Intersections of Race, Class, and Gender

This course explores the ways in which individuals and groups represent, transform, and create their identities through musical performance and other performative acts. Several issues of "musical identity" are discussed: creation and expression of gender through music, musical expressions of ethnic and/or racial identity, musical creation of "official" identities (including U.S. nationalism), and the representation of the self through music. This course satisfies the fine arts requirement.
