As human beings, we have taken the existence of music for granted and rarely think critically about music and its purpose.

This linear approach allows the reader to trace the history and evolution of music through the ages. \u003cem\u003eUnderstanding Music: Past and Present\u003c\/em\u003e is designed to grow the reader's appreciation of music through improved understanding and listening skills, allowing the reader to develop his or her own informed opinions and express them.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSponsored by eCore\u003c\/strong\u003e: eCore is a collaborative program that supports online core courses for students from twenty-five University System of Georgia colleges and universities.
