    This course is a survey of Rock Music styles from ca. 1950 to the present. We also discuss pre- and proto- rock styles such as Jazz, Blues, and popular song, reaching back into the late nineteenth century. In the course we will not only study the changing history of rock music (which requires discussion of non-rock music as well), but also the cultural forces that gave rise to those changes. Because of this historical perspective, our approach will be largely chronological, with an eye toward how various styles influenced one another.
