piano performance: Choosing Electives

The Bachelor of Music degree with an emphasis in Piano Performance has several options for electives within both university studies and in the emphasis itself providing a sizable block of elective credits which you may choose to use in different ways. Choosing these classes carefully can greatly enhance the focus and the value of the degree program.

You may choose to elect additional courses in music theory, music history for additional depth of knowledge in those areas within the Piano Performance emphasis. Or, you may choose to elect courses in art, literature, history or foreign language which will deepen your awareness of the world setting in which the music you perform was originally composed, and is performed today. Furthermore, you may choose electives in order to explore new opportunities or experiences or to develop a career profile otherwise unsupported by offerings in the Piano Performance emphasis.
