Complete the Following
A minor in music requires eighteen semester hours as listed below:
Audition
Students minoring in music should choose voice, instrument, or piano. Music students should demonstrate adequate preparation by auditioning for the music faculty. The auditions will be held during the regularly scheduled jury examination period each semester, or by special arrangement. Candidates will be requested to perform a solo composition, as well as scales, vocalizations and a sight-reading problem, as appropriate. Voice Specialization
Students who select voice should possess a voice of good quality and show evidence of musicianship. During the entrance examination period, these candidates should be prepared to sing for the audition committee at least two songs that will best show their possibilities and music development. Some piano experience would be helpful. Juries and Recitals
From the second through the fifth semester of the applied music sequence, juries are held at the end of each semester in the student’s concentration. These juries consist of a ten-minute performance session before a faculty committee with a brief period of questioning pertinent to the applied concentration
Student recitals are held regularly. Attendance and/or performance at these programs are concomitant with the requirements and objectives of the music program. During the sixth semester of the applied music sequence, the student presents a solo recital. All graduating seniors are expected to perform in the musical activities of their baccalaureate and commencement services.
