Please note: The listening list includes all of the listening examples covered in the assigned reading. We will not be able to cover all of

these in class, but you are still responsible for identifying the songs on listening quizzes or exams. A deeper, critical knowledge oflistening examples discussed in class will be expected than for those not covered in class.

Listening examples in bold are not covered in the textbook. We will create WTS style listening guides for them in class.
