starting college in the fall, currently choosing honors courses. this one caught my eye:
MUSC 061H 001 (04511): FYS: Reverberations, Professor Mark Katz, Music, MWF, 11:00-11:50, 205 Hill Hall. Communication Intensive (CI); Social and Behavioral Science (SS) (GC Aesthetic/Fine Arts) The same musical performance can represent different things to different people who experience it. For example, a singular performance of Balinese Gong Kebyar can represent the "authentic" sounds of paradise for the tourist, cultural pride mixed with the feeling of financial security for some of the performers, the cynicism of cultural sell-out for others amongst the performers, and a conundrum for the researcher or student trying to understand all of these perspectives. Class discussions will focus on how we represent music cultures to ourselves and what happens when we take the representations back.

I am not sure whether this will be an interesting discussion of music's cultural functions, or ILM with less music-loving and more college students.
