• The fundamental aim of the curriculum in music is to develop that experience to its utmost potential.
  • Performance ensembles and private instruction build directly on that experience, while classroom instruction introduces student musicians to important ideas, histories, and various cultures that inform and broaden that experience.
  • Qualified students can choose to develop in ways that most interest.
  • Those who choose to major in music will find development guided by a balanced program of performance and classroom studies.
  • Graduating majors have gone on to graduate study in every area of music or have immediately entered careers in arts management, mathematics, medicine, law, business, sound engineering, and many other fields.
