No homework this weekend

However,

From this point on you will be asked to make "Listening Notes" for each class. "Listening Notes" consist of a handwritten page of notes, impressions, insights, questions, and observations taken while ACTIVELY listening to the pieces we are studying in class. Set your self up with a notebook, listening device of some sort, and the recording. As you listen, begin to write. You may also draw. But please relate what you produce to the music itself.

Beginning Monday, we will look at "A Musical Offering". This is a deceptively simple piece of music that well illustrates many of the ideas we have batted about in class thus far.

Friday's class will have us watching the rest of "32 Short Films about Glenn Gould".
