INSTRUCTOR:
Prof Michael GLENCROSS, BSc, BSc(Hons), BEd, MPhil, DPhil, & PGCE
incl. course materials and refreshments
This course is designed to introduce participants to the mathematics-related aspects of music, including overtones, scales, tuning systems, the musical dice games of Mozart and Haydn, the old English style of bell-ringing and other topics involving mathematical ideas from probability theory to group theory. The only requirements for the course are an interest in and enthusiasm for both Mathematics and Music, as the mathematical and musical concepts are described in an elementary way.
The Course will be run over two consecutive Saturdays, and will be offered in both the first and second semesters – participants might elect which of the two they would rather attend.
