Abstract

In the case of any ESP course, at any level, a careful syllabus design is of critical importance for its successful and purposeful implementation. After the introductory chapters, dealing with the key definitions and issues of ESP and art music related ESP, in the central part of this paper a design of an art music related ESP course syllabus is presented in detail, with the naming and description of all the steps and components included both in the design process and the subsequent practical performance of the course in direct work with students. The entire described process is planned with the full awareness of the contemporary life and circumstances, especially regarding the development of information technologies and information society and the consequences of such a development to the notions and concepts of learning, studying and teaching.
