The Music program provides students with a focused study in musical foundations such as music theory, ear-training and sight singing, class piano, music literature, private instrumental, and vocal instruction. We focus on the appreciation and performance of instrumental and vocal music, and we offer specific courses that fulfill the first two years of a four-year course of study leading to a bachelor's degree in music and music preparation.
Music Program HighlightsThe Music program offers students the opportunity to study, take courses, and perform in our state-of-the-art Performing Arts Center, which includes: a 400-seat theatre; black box theatre; recital hall; rehearsal hall; recording studio; piano lab; computer lab; private practice rooms with Boston upright pianos in each; and smart classrooms.
