Graduate Instrumental Arts Program
There is a great need for musicians who combine excellent instrumental skills with a more expansive understanding of the role of music in society.
The Graduate Instrumental Arts Program aims to train this type of musician by combining the academic and practical studies of music, with a strong emphasis on music as a means of engaging with, and serving, the broader community beyond the campus.
During this two-year master of music degree, students develop the core value of music and musicians in service of society.
Through private instruction with artist faculty members, coursework in music history and music theory, practical seminars in professional and program development, and performance in recital, chamber music, and orchestra, graduates of the Instrumental Arts Program will be wellequipped to meet the demands for a career in music.
