Summer courses for ethnomusicology?
I'm very interested in ethnomusicology. I'm looking for stand alone summer courses (preferably online since I have a full time job in Chicago) that can serve as sort of 'intro to ethnomusicology'. I'm considering a degree in that field, but I'd like a taste of things to come for this summer.
I didn't do so well in sight singing and the like when I was studying music education, so that's a bit of a deterrent. I enjoy learning about musical heritage and how it affects today's cultures (both musically and day-to-day).
Does anyone know of a good (again...preferably online) course that has a good overview of the field? Thank you.

In episode 11 of season 7, The Crimson Horror what is the music that is playing while they are in the missile silo (near the end of the episode)? I have heard the recurring theme all season, but I'd like to know the name of the piece. It has alternating rhythm between 2 and 3. In the missle silo it begins with strings and goes to French horns. Please and thank you.

The commercial claims that MW3 is "The most anticipated game in history". What determines this? How is this true? It seems to me that maybe Halo or some other franchise game may be more anticipated.

I found these guys on a job hunter website. I applied for an entry level position and they contacted me in a matter of hours to set up an interview. I am a little weary since I cannot find any reviews online and they position I applied for (while entry level) is very far outside of my training.
Does anyone have any experiences with this organization or found any reviews? Their website is http://www.emswebsite.com/
Thanks!

1 AnswerVideo & Online Games10 years agoCan anybody tell me what the name of this painting is?
I had a friend take a picture of this painting, but we don't know what it is. It appears to be a romantic style painting. It has a storm in the upper left side going to a brighter (but still cloudy) sky in the upper right side. Below the clearer sky on the right is what appears to be a white temple/some sort of complex. It is a little more than half way up and seems to be 2-3 stories tall. On the bottom center is a Moses-like figure in a red robe maybe (the quality isn't too good in this photo). This man has a bunch of people with him. The colors are mostly dark, but on the right hand side going up the hill is a little green from a path. Any information about this painting would be greatly appreciated. It looks similar to Joseph Mallord William Turner's styles, but I am not sure.

1 AnswerWords & Wordplay1 decade ago57 academics just punched the air?
I was watching Dr. Who "The Shakespeare Code". The doctor said 57 academics just punched the air when Shakespeare hit on the doctor. I understand the quote being about the people arguing how Shakespeare was bi, but where does 57 come from? Was there some record of exactly 57 people arguing that he was bi, is it a random number of people, or does it have to do with some sort of phrase or figure of speech?
