The music curriculum provides a program for the student
who wishes to (1) pursue an advanced degree in music, (2) become
a professional musician, (3) prepare for a career in public school
teaching, (4) broaden a general knowledge of music, or (5) develop
performance skills. Students will be given the theory, keyboard,
and sight-reading skills necessary to transfer to a four-year college
music curriculum, where they will be expected to pass proficiency
exams in each of these areas. Participation in at least one principal
performance group is highly recommended for each semester.
Opportunities for other careers in commercial music are found in
music publishing, composition, nightclub entertainment, dance bands,
backup singing groups, lead singing, recording studios, music sales,
music retailing, librarian work, and management. The requisite
background for these careers is found in the basic music major
curricula plus optional specialized training courses.
