MULT 273 History of Rock Music



This course traces rock and roll from its roots in country, blues, and popular music to the present day. It examines cultural events such as the 1969 Woodstock festival, as well as specific genres, artists and topics, including the rise of MTV and the music video, rock music in Christian contexts, and alternative subgenres such as noise and college rock. By investigating how rock music illuminates issues such as gender, race, ethnicity, sexuality and other components of identity, students will gain knowledge of rock musical styles and cultural contexts.
