Music for Global Human Development (Music 365)

This course will focus on Music for Global Human Development -- the ways music can be used for social progress on a variety of issues -- with an applied ethnomusicology project in tandem with the Edmonton Mennonite Centre for Newcomers, focusing on immigration, refugees, and socio-cultural integration through music.

This course will count for the Community Service Learning certificate; you will volunteer 20 hours with Edmonton Mennonite Centre for Newcomers. This time will be counted towards your workload however, and will not pose a burden above and beyond what Music 365 typically demands. Rather some of your academic work will instead take the form of volunteer service.

I suggest that you also enroll in The Middle Eastern and North African Music Ensemble, as the two courses will work very well together.

Please write Prof. Michael Frishkopf for more information.
