As a society, music has become an intimate part of who we are. Not only is music available everywhere, but we can download and listen to virtually every genre and style. Why we like certain music, and what it is that keeps us coming back, becomes a decidedly more difficult question—a question that Thinking Music navigates. Exploring the elements and history of music, students gain a deeper understanding of why and how music has become such a pronounced part of our world.
