In fact more people actively choose to listen to music than watch television. Why? This course will use data and analytics to explore why people engage in music.

Students will learn to apply correlation analysis to a vast corpus of actual performance data using the latest analytics and query tools, developing insights into what motivates the musical preferences and behaviors of both performers and listeners.
