MHL 204 – SUPPLEMENTARY  LISTENING

(F-09)

 

The following pieces aren’t in the Norton Anthology.  You’ll find recordings of them on 4 CDs on reserve in the library.  I’ve posted a PDF of each selection on this website and also my attempt at an analytical note.  You are responsible for knowing these works just as though I’d assigned them from NAWM.
