Undergraduate

This program is a four-year professional degree program (differing from a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music, which is more general). The Bachelor of Music program is oriented toward development of a high level of musical achievement in a specialized area. Around 75 percent (90 hours) of the degree study involves music coursework: lessons, ensembles, musicianship and music history, along with specialized courses in each major area. In these courses, students acquire the knowledge and skills that will form the foundation for work in the professional music world. Because it is important for musicians to make connections between music and other fields of study, students also take about 30 hours in areas such as English composition, foreign language, visual arts, history, or psychology. The program for flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, saxophone, trumpet, horn, trombone, tuba, and percussion instruments requires 120 semester hours. It is designed to prepare the student as a performer (solo and ensemble) and for graduate study. The wood wind program offers: private instruction form committed teachers both in individual lessons and studio classes; performance classes hosted by visiting artists; and opportunities to perform in Master Classes with guest artists of international stature.
