Our Master of Music program is designed to develop your professional and scholarly competence in a wide range of artistic and cultural areas.
Seven concentration areas are available: conducting choral, conducting instrumental, music education, music theory/composition, performance, performance collaborative piano, and performance pedagogy.
Curricula are very flexible and may be customized according to a variety of interests, such as jazz performance and composition, chamber music, specialization in instrument families, or media.
The program is composed of a minimum of 30-33 credit hours and requires participation in one major ensemble each semester. Thesis and non-thesis tracks are available.
