Take Note

The Music Appreciation text that encourages active listening through a recurring repertory of classic works

Take Note is designed to help students become active and attentive listeners through in-depth examination of a recurring repertory of core musical works. By exploring each element of music through the lens of these core works—which were carefully selected to represent a variety of styles and genres—students deepen their understanding of how music works and develop strong listening skills that will enhance their enjoyment of music. Combining this listening-centered approach with an overview of Western music history, interactive activities, and in-text features that invite students to discover additional works outside of the classroom, Take Note prepares students for a lifetime of music appreciation.
