This week we will apply the understanding you have gained about intellectual property rights to actual case studies. Be sure to take careful notes so that you will have them available to answer the questions in the test at the end of the week. Also you might be refering to these case studies later in the course.
You will notice that this course follows the "rule of two"
whenever possible. We try to present the materials in duplicate in case
there is a technology problem with access to one of the materials.
Please contact your instructor immediately if you have a problem with
accessing a material on the site. We will try to correct the problem if
possible.

Don't panic. This is not a music theory course. However, you will need to have a basic command of a few music terms. These are the important terms.
Chord (a chord is a vertical arrangement of notes--notes that sound together, harmony)
Chord Changes (a series of chords)
Chorus (a part of the song where the music and lyrics are repeated, usually the highlight of the song)
Dynamic (the volume or loudness of a note or musical line)
Harmonic Analysis, Roman Numeral Analysis (this represents harmonies or chords with Roman Numerals)
Instrumentation (refers to the instruments or voices used)
Melody (a horizontal "string" of notes)
Meter, tempo (although these two terms have different meaning, for our purposes in the course let them refer to: the speed of the beats or pulses in music)
Metronome (a device that measures the speed of beats)
Rhythm (a series of different note lengths over time--such as in a melody; rhythm is not the same as tempo or meter)
Scale or Key (although these two terms have a different meaning, for our purposes in the course let them refer to: a collection of notes from which tonal (popular) music is drawn)
