MUSC 2210 - American Roots Music: Old Time, Bluegrass and Country In this course we will listen to old time music, bluegrass, early country, country music and Appalachian folk music. All of these genres are considered American either because they are native to the United States or because they developed here, from foreign origins. "Roots music" served as the basis for many American music genres. By listening to ballads, lullabies, work songs, battle cries, love songs, topical verse, and children's songs, we will study how these traditions are passed from one generation to another and how songs have reflected and impacted history. 3 credits.
