I’m enrolled for a course called History of Medieval Music. I’ve had AP theory in high school, but quite a few of the people in the class are music majors who have had advanced theory. Is medieval music complicated stuff or what?

Derek asked:


Music can bring out such strong and mixed emotions from every listener. A listener also appreciates certain music over other. A listener will find some music to be horribly and some music to be great. What determines a listener to perceived a piece of music to be a great work of art? What determines a listener to perceive a piece of music to have no beauty?

It seems music has to be structured right in order for a listener to appreciate it. A music with wrong structure, whether is be bad rhythm or bad placement of noted, becomes a burden to listen to. What in our minds determines the structure that music has to have in order to be appreciated? Please explain why.
If you find this interesting, please do not forget to star. Thanks.

Mawia, i value your input but I wish I could make myself more clear. I just want to know how the brain functions when it perceives music. Why does some music sound good and some music sound bad?

sir’slady asked:


What (besides practicing) is the best to prepare me for a music education major? How much should I practice? (I want to either major in instumental or be a double major with vocal) I play four instruments – piano, clarinet, tenor sax, and bassoon. Should I focus more on certain instruments? Should I try to be involved in other bands/orchestras? Should I do lots of solo work? I will go to a liberal arts college, specifically Calvin College (http://www.calvin.edu) or possibly Lawrence College.
